Abstract
A depth camera and an optional visual camera are used in conjunction with a computing device and projector to display a presentation and automatically correct the geometry of the projected presentation. Interaction with the presentation (switching slides, pointing, etc.) is achieved by utilizing gesture recognition/human tracking based on the output of the depth camera and (optionally) the visual camera. Additionally, the output of the depth camera and/or visual camera can be used to detect occlusions between the projector and the screen (or other target area) in order to adjust the presentation to not project on the occlusion and, optionally, reorganize the presentation to avoid the occlusion.

9. An apparatus for displaying content, comprising:
-
a processor; a display device in communication with the processor; a depth camera in communication with the processor, the processor receives depth images from the depth camera and recognizes one or more gestures made by a human in a field of view of the depth camera; and a memory device in communication with the processor, the memory device stores a presentation, the processor causes the presentation to be displayed by the display device, the processor performs one or more actions to adjust the presentation based on the recognized one or more gestures. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. One or more processor readable storage devices having processor readable code embodied on the one or more processor readable storage devices, the processor readable code for programming one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving a depth image; automatically detecting an occlusion between a projector and a target area using the depth image; automatically adjusting a presentation in response to and based on detecting the occlusion so that the presentation will not be projected on the occlusion; and displaying the adjusted presentation on the target area without displaying the presentation on the occlusion. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
