Abstract
A method of adjusting an image projected by a projector in operative communication with a smartphone having a touch screen display, wherein the method includes projecting an image onto an adjacent surface using the projector and generating an image adjustment user interface on the touch screen display. The image adjustment user interface defines an image adjustment field on the touch screen display. The method further includes detecting a single finger gesture made by a user within the image adjustment field on the touch screen display and generating an image adjustment signal corresponding to the detected signal finger gesture. The projected image is then adjusted in accordance with the image adjustment signal.
