Description

The system and method that is used for the seam of level and smooth tiled displays
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to the field of display, and more specifically, relate to the multi-projector display system.
Background technology
The multi-projector display system is suggested and has used for many years.In the 1950's, be directed to the film industry and developed " CINERAMA " system.The CINERAMA system uses three cover films, throws three images with the projecting apparatus that uses three separation, subsequently, makes up described three images, to form single panoramic picture.
The difficulty that the multi-projector display system is brought is: a plurality of images often are not rendered as a single continuous images on display screen.When on single screen, throwing two images side by side, usually, between described image, there is seam.It is overlapping on single screen that final display image will be rendered as two images placed side by side or the image that have the slit therebetween, has bright line therebetween.Because the inconsistency in traditional video camera, Video processing and transmission channels, display and the specific projection instrument is very difficult to ideally mate resulting video image, make not occur the non-natural sign (artifact) that tiles among the image.If on same screen, make image very near from getting together, so, typically, can on each seam region, exist overlapping.
Therefore, need be used for providing in the multi-projector display system usually the system and method for seamless image.In addition, projector lens can make image fault arrive certain degree in itself, especially in the edge of camera lens.Especially in the edge of camera lens, expectation makes the distortion minimum of the image of demonstration, and this is owing to the image that shows near seam more may be throwed in this camera lens zone.
The conditional electronic distortion correction comprises: when display image, catch this image by the video image trap setting, and, generate the feedback signal of representing shown distortion.Use feedback signal to offset distortion.Such solution provides some improvement to the lens distortions problem.Yet among other shortcoming, this electron-like distortion correction self may increase distortion, often increases system complexity and cost, and makes calibration and user interface complexity.
Therefore, need be used for the system and method for flush system display system, it does not comprise visible interference seam between tiling piece (tile).In addition, have the needs to such flush system display system, this flush system display system will be merged together from the projects images of a plurality of tiling pieces, and forming the tiling image, but it does not need high-quality (and expensive) optics.Therefore, need to carry out lens distortions the system of electronic compensation.In addition, expectation can be adjusted the system of lens distortions under the situation of the outside seizure that does not rely on shown image separately.In addition, need such system and method, it provides the visual angle wideer than existing system, and simultaneously, more effectively eliminates the seam in the flush system image.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides the method that is used on display surface, producing seamless basically video image.This method may further comprise the steps: at least the first and second video images are projected on the display surface independently, and feasible lap by described first and second video images defines seam.Within this seam, adjust the brightness of first video image and the brightness of second video image electronically, so that consistent luminance contour is provided.
