Projection system with multi-surface projection screen
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a projection screen to present images projected thereon, the projection screen having at least a first surface and a second surface;
a projection system comprising;
a memory;
a processor;
a projector;
a surface detection component to;
determine a first rate at which the projection screen is adjusted such that the first surface is oriented towards the projector; and
determine a second rate at which the projection screen is adjusted such that the second surface is oriented towards the projector, the second rate being different from the first rate; and
the projector to;
project one or more first images onto the first surface of the projection screen based at least in part on the first rate; and
project one or more second images onto the second surface of the projection screen based at least in part on the second rate, wherein the one or more first images projected onto the first surface present first content and the one or more second images projected onto the second surface present second content different from the first content.

Abstract
A projection and camera system projects content onto a passive, multi-surface projection screen. When a first surface of the screen is oriented to receive the projected images, the system detects this first surface and projects content associated with that surface of the screen. When a second surface is oriented to receive the projected images, the system detects this change from the first surface to the second surface and projects different content associated with the second surface. In this manner, to switch between different content or different applications, the user merely needs to turn the screen over.

11. A system comprising:
-
a projection screen having at least a first surface and a second surface; and a projection system to; detect a first rate at which a position of the projection screen is adjusted such that the first surface is oriented towards the projection system; based at least partly on the first rate, project one or more first images onto the first surface of the projection screen; detect a second rate at which the projection is adjusted such that the second surface is oriented towards the projection system, the second rate being different from the first rate; and project one or more second images onto the second surface of the projection screen based at least in part on the second rate. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A projection system comprising:
-
a projector; a surface detection component to; detect a first rate at which a projection screen is adjusted such that a first surface of the projection screen is oriented towards the projector; and detect a second rate at which the projection screen is adjusted such that a second surface of the projection screen is oriented towards the projector; and the projector to; project one or more first images onto the first surface of the projection screen based at least in part on the first rate; and project one or more second images onto the second surface of the projection screen based at least in part on the second rate. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)

21. A method comprising:
-
projecting, from a projector, one or more first images onto a first surface of a projection screen; determining a rate at which the projection screen is moved in a first direction relative to the projector to expose a second surface to the projector; and projecting, from the projector and based at least partly on the rate, one or more second images onto the second surface of the projection screen. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
