Abstract

We describe a new technique to display seamless images using overlapping projectors on curved surfaces. Our method addresses issues such as automatic registration, smooth intensity blending and efficient rendering. Previous techniques for automatically registered seamless displays have focused mainly on planar displays. Techniques for curved screens currently involve cumbersome manual alignment to make the installation conform to the intended design.
