Disclosed herein are three-dimensional projection systems and related methods employing two electronically controlled projectors and a retro-reflective screen. When an image is projected onto a retroreflective screen, the screen produces a known non-linear light reflection pattern. Planar image information is calculated for each projector using image computing means based on the input stereopair images and information about the projectors and the screen. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the projection system uses an image calculation device that uses a neural network feedback algorithm to calculate the appropriate planar image to be projected onto the screen by multiple projectors at any given moment informative and appropriate images. More than two projectors may be employed to generate multiple perspective views, to support multiple viewers, and the like. In another embodiment, the projection system includes a digital camera that provides feedback data on the output image.

An object of the invention is to obtain a magnetic resonance spectroscopic image to which the MAC summation is applied with high accuracy and in short time, even though a phase characteristic distribution of the MAC has a spatial non-uniformity, in the MRSI measurement using a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus provided with a MAC. Using a non-water-suppressed image signal with high SNR, obtained in the non-water-suppressed measurement (a reference measurement) without water suppression, a correction value for correcting the phase distortion for the MAC summation is calculated on each pixel in each coil. After correcting a phase on each pixel in each coil of a main-scan image signal measured under suppressing water (water-suppressed image signal) using the corrective value, signal adding operation (summation) is performed. Then, a phase correction in a spectrum-axis is to be performed on the summed spectrum signal.

The invention is a method for repairing the phase error caused by saturation by using a phase fusion algorithm, and relates to how to repair the phase error caused by saturation in the field of three-dimensional measurement. Adjust the camera so that the pixels are not saturated, the projector projects a solid-color grayscale pattern on the surface of the object, and uses the camera to record the scanned image; when the camera overflows, the projector projects multiple groups of structured light patterns to scan the object, two adjacent The maximum gray value (amplitude) of the group pattern increases, and the camera records the scanned image; calculates the modulation intensity and phase of the scanned structured light image; combines the captured pure color image to normalize the modulation intensity; selects each pixel The maximum normalized modulation intensity of , and its corresponding phase is taken as the final phase. The present invention fuses by selecting the phase corresponding to the maximum normalized modulation intensity, and is not limited by the degree of saturation. When the measurement system is nonlinear, it can also effectively repair the saturation error and expand the applicable range of repairing the saturation error.
