Projection apparatus and method for controlling the same, and a computer-readable storage medium
First Claim
1. An adjustment apparatus for adjusting a stereoscopic degree of at least one of a plurality of projection apparatuses for displaying one stereoscopic image obtained by projecting a plurality of stereoscopic images such that portions thereof overlap each other, the adjustment apparatus comprising:
- a projection control unit configured to cause a projection unit of at least one of the plurality of projection apparatuses to project a left image including an indicator and a right image including an indicator, wherein the indicators are used to detect a parallax between the left image and the right image, and wherein at least a part of each of the indicators is projected by the projection unit in an overlapping region where the plurality of stereoscopic images overlap each other;
a detection unit configured to detect the parallax between the left image and the right image based on a captured image of the indicators which are projected by the projection unit; and
an adjustment unit configured to adjust the stereoscopic degree of the projection unit by an adjustment amount that is determined based on a comparison of a parallax between the left image and the right image with a predetermined value.

Abstract
A projection apparatus for projecting a plurality of stereoscopic images such that portions thereof overlap each other and displaying one stereoscopic image, the apparatus includes a projection unit adapted to project an indicator that is an image for adjusting a stereoscopic degree corresponding to a parallax between a projected left image and a projected right image, in an overlapping region where the plurality of stereoscopic images overlap each other; a detection unit adapted to detect a parallax between an indicator in the left image and an indicator in the right image based on a captured image of a projected indicator; and an adjustment unit adapted to adjust stereoscopic degrees of the plurality of stereoscopic images by an adjustment amount that is determined based on the detected parallax.

10. An adjustment method for adjusting a stereoscopic degree of at least one of a plurality of projection apparatuses for displaying one stereoscopic image obtained by projecting a plurality of stereoscopic images such that portions thereof overlap each other, the adjustment method comprising:
-
a controlling step of causing a projection unit of at least one of the plurality of projection apparatuses to project a left image including an indicator and a right image including an indicator, wherein the indicators are used to detect a parallax between the left image and the right image, and wherein at least a part of each of the indicators is projected by the projection unit in an overlapping region where the plurality of stereoscopic images overlap each other; a detection step of detecting the parallax between the left image and the right image based on a captured image of the indicators which are projected by the projection unit; and an adjustment step of adjusting the stereoscopic degree of the projection unit by an adjustment amount that is determined based on a comparison of a parallax between the left image and the right image with a predetermined value.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program for causing a computer to function as units of an adjustment apparatus for adjusting a stereoscopic degree of at least one of the plurality of projection apparatuses for displaying one stereoscopic image obtained by projecting a plurality of stereoscopic images such that portions thereof overlap each other, the units comprising:
-
a projection control unit configured to cause a projection unit of at least one of the plurality of projection apparatuses to project a left image including an indicator and a right image including an indicator, wherein the indicators are used to detect a parallax between the left image and the right image, and wherein at least a part of each of the indicators is projected by the projection unit in an overlapping region where the plurality of stereoscopic images overlap each other; a detection unit configured to detect the parallax between the left image and the right image based on a captured image of the indicators which are projected by the projection unit; and an adjustment unit configured to adjust the stereoscopic degree of the projection unit by an adjustment amount that is determined based on a comparison of a parallax between the left image and the right image with a predetermined value.
