Abstract

The various embodiments include systems and methods for rendering images in a virtual or augmented reality system that may include capturing scene images of a scene in a vicinity of a first and a second projector, capturing spatial data with a sensor array in the vicinity of the first and second projectors, analyzing captured scene images to recognize body parts, and projecting images from each of the first and the second projectors with a shape and orientation determined based on the recognized body parts. Additional rendering operations may include tracking movements of the recognized body parts, applying a detection algorithm to the tracked movements to detect a predetermined gesture, applying a command corresponding to the detected predetermined gesture, and updating the projected images in response to the applied command.
