The challenges

The regular calibration method is inadequate in this projection installation due to site limitations – screen shape being an oval curve rather than a perfect curve, projection distance being too short for the camera to capture the entire screen area. Therefore a lot of adjustment is necessary to complete the job, including the use of 3D Disto, a high-precision 3D measuring device, to calibrate the accurate screen shape for mapping. For areas that fall outside the range of the camera, adjustments have to be made manually, a process which requires high levels of expertise and experience.

 

onActivity successfully staged this multiple projection installation with our state-of-the-art solutions.
