Abstract

Immersive projection technologies surrounding users with large and high quality images are fundamental elements in our near-future information society. However, such large projection systems are frequently based on large implementation and high-cost components like a special projector and screen. This situation limits users receiving the benefits with those technologies. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an effective immersive projection system using simple projectors and convex mirrors for our everyday surfaces like a wall in a room. We also introduce a simple calibration method for making that system easy to use for many people.
