-
a parameter deriver adapted to find parameters for projecting an image shot with a camera onto a predetermined surface, wherein the parameter deriver finds the parameters based on a shot-for-calibration image from the camera, the shot-for-calibration image includes a calibration pattern of a previously known shape arranged inside a shooting area of the camera, and the parameter deriver performs coordinate conversion on the calibration pattern on the shot-for-calibration image by using initial parameters based on previously set information and then performs adjustment on the initial parameters based on a shape of the calibration pattern after the coordinate conversion and previously known information on this shape in order to find, through this adjustment, the parameters definitively. - View Dependent Claims (6)
