In applications requiring remote manipulation of tools with video feedback such as surgical or dental applications, it is important to keep the instruments in the field of view. By placing trackable identification markers on one or more instruments, a video feedback system will track that instrument and keep the marked instrument in the field of view. Thus wherever the marked instrument(s) are moved, the camera will follow, keeping the marked instrument(s) in the field of view. Since instrument tracking may not always be desired, the feedback tracking system may be manually activated by a footswitch, voice control or other suitable apparatus. Alternatively, motion sensors on a users head, or cameras tracking the users eyes may be used to sense motion of the head to control the field of view.

A “Concurrent Projector-Camera” uses an image projection device in combination with one or more cameras to enable various techniques that provide visually flicker-free projection of images or video, while real-time image or video capture is occurring in that same space. The Concurrent Projector-Camera provides this projection in a manner that eliminates video feedback into the real-time image or video capture. More specifically, the Concurrent Projector-Camera dynamically synchronizes a combination of projector lighting (or light-control points) on-state temporal compression in combination with on-state temporal shifting during each image frame projection to open a “capture time slot” for image capture during which no image is being projected. This capture time slot represents a tradeoff between image capture time and decreased brightness of the projected image. Examples of image projection devices include LED-LCD based projection devices, DLP-based projection devices using LED or laser illumination in combination with micromirror arrays, etc.
