Abstract
A system for displaying and capturing images with a portable device includes a projector to project an image, a position sensor to determine positional information, and a processor coupled to the projector and to the position sensor. The processor adjusts the image based on the positional information. The position sensor detects the location and orientation of the portable device so that the processor adjusts the image to display only a portion of the image encompassing a point of view pointed to by the portable device. Displaying a portion of the image reduces projector complexity and processing/data requirements. The use of the position sensor may also help reduce processing/data requirements when capturing images.
