Abstract
In some examples, a projection capture system comprises a controller, a camera operatively connected to the controller for capturing images of an object on a work surface of a workspace, a projector operatively connected to the controller, and a mirror above the projector to reflect light from the projector onto the work surface. The camera is located higher than the projector, and the controller is to control the camera to capture an image of a real object on the work surface, and control the projector to project the image of the real object onto the work surface.

10. A non-transitory processor readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution:
-
cause a camera to capture an image of a real object on a work surface in a first workspace of a projection capture device including the camera and a projector; and cause the projector to project the image of the real object onto the work surface, wherein the causing of the projecting of the image of the real object onto the work surface comprises causing the projector to project the image of the real object to a mirror located above the projector, the mirror to reflect the image of the real object into the first workspace, and the camera located higher than the projector. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method comprising:
-
capturing, by a camera, a digital image of a real object on a work surface in a first workspace; and projecting, by a projector, the image of the real object to a mirror located above the projector, the mirror reflecting the image of the real object onto the work surface, wherein the camera is located higher than the projector. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
