Curved screen display system and method
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A curved screen display system, comprising:
- a processor coupled to receive standard video content;
a light engine coupled to the processor; and
an optics array positioned to receive a projected image output from the light engine, the optics array comprising at least one correction mirror configured to reflect the projected image onto a non-planar display screen accurately such that pixels of the projected image are remapped to the non-planar display screen.

Abstract
A curved screen display system and method are described. Embodiments include a processor coupled to receive standard video content, a light engine coupled to the processor, and an optics array positioned to receive a projected image output from the light engine, the optics array comprising a correction mirror configured to reflect the projected image onto a non-planar display screen accurately such that pixels of the projected image are remapped to the non-planar display screen. Embodiments further include a method for designing a correction mirror to display the standard video content on the non-planar display screen.

19. A computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor, cause a curved screen display method to be performed by a curved screed display system, the method comprising:
-
receiving a video signal comprising standard video content; performing a digital correction process on the standard video content to generate corrected standard video content, comprising remapping pixels of the standard video content to a non-planar display screen; and projecting the corrected standard video content, comprising projecting onto at lest one correction mirror designed to reflect an undistorted video image onto the non-planar display screen.

21. A computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor, generate a design for a correction mirror, wherein generating comprises defining a mathematical model of the system such that given a non-planar display screen surface, S, and a light engine at location p, a surface, C, can be found such that light is correctly reflected from the light engine back onto the non-planar display screen surface.
