PROJECTION SYSTEM, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND CORRECTION METHOD
First Claim
1. A projection system comprising:
- a plurality of projection units configured to collectively project an image as a whole on a projection area;
a generation unit configured to generate corrected images including respective correction points which are used for detecting distortions of projection images, which are projected by the respective projection units, based on designated relationships between the projection images of the projection units and the projection area; and
a compensation coefficient calculation unit configured to calculate compensation coefficients, which correspond to the projection units, based on one or more correction captured images that are acquired by capturing the corrected images projected on the projection area,wherein the generation unit is configured to further generate margin parts in the corrected images, which correspond to the projection units that project the projection images in outer areas of the projection area, in a manner so that parts defining the correction points in the corrected images are projected within the projection area while the parts defining correction points in the corrected images corresponding to the projection units that are next to each other are overlapped.

Abstract
A projection system includes projection units collectively projecting an image as a whole on a projection area; a generation unit generating corrected images including correction points which are used for detecting distortions of projection images based on designated relationships; and a compensation coefficient calculation unit calculating compensation coefficients, based on correction captured images acquired from the corrected images on the projection area. Further, margin parts are generated in the corrected images in a manner so that parts defining the correction points in the corrected images are projected within the projection area while the parts defining correction points in the corrected images corresponding to the projection units that are next to each other are overlapped.

16. A correction method executed by a computer causing a plurality of projection units to collectively project an image as a whole on a projection area, the correction method comprising:
-
a generating step of generating corrected images including respective correction points which are used for detecting distortions of projection images, which are projected by the respective projection units, based on designated relationships between the projection images of the projection units and the projection area; a projection step of causing the projection units to project the generated corrected images; a receiving step of receiving an input of one or more correction captured images that are acquired by capturing the corrected images projected on the projection area; and a calculation step of calculating compensation coefficients, which correspond to the projection units, based on the one or more correction captured images; wherein margin parts are generated in the corrected images, which correspond to the projection units that project the projection images in outer areas of the projection area, in a manner so that parts defining the correction points in the corrected images are projected within the projection area while the parts defining correction points in the corrected images corresponding to the projection units that are next to each other are overlapped. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
