AI Technical Summary
Existing projection mapping systems for animated figures in entertainment venues struggle to create lifelike and contextually harmonious images, often resulting in non-realistic backlighting and limited interaction with the environment.
A calibration tool for dynamic projection mapping systems, comprising a rigid body with light emitters and a sensor, is used to calibrate tracking cameras and projectors, enabling accurate projection of images based on real-time position and orientation data without relying on sensors or actuators of the animated figure.
The system allows for realistic and interactive projection mapping by dynamically adapting images to the animated figure's position and orientation, providing a lifelike and immersive experience.
