We have developed a multi-projector display environment called the Projector Array System. Tiled images are projected onto a large screen from the multiple projectors, and these images are connected seamlessly by an image transforming mechanism. This mechanism is executed in real-time by a special hardware called the PA board that modifies geometrical errors caused from each projector.
In this paper, we apply this environment to a live image display system. In order to capture wide view-angle and high resolution images, we use a multi-camera system that has the same alignment as the multi-projector system. When we configure the total system, a method for modifying geometrical errors caused by the camera system, and another method for modifying errors caused from a parameter mismatch between the camera and the projector are required. In this system, therefore, we implement these methods so that three errors caused from (1) projection environment, (2) camera system, and (3) parameter's mismatch are modified altogether by the PA board at the same time. A prototype experiment enables a naturalistic image display.
