Les images mappées par vidéo peuvent comprendre des caractéristiques à projeter sur les objets. La projection d'une image mappée par vidéo sur l'objet physique permet de visualiser la caractéristique sur l'objet. Dans certains exemples, le dispositif informatique reçoit une sélection de caractéristique pour un objet particulier et génère une image mappée par vidéo présentant la caractéristique sélectionnée à transmettre à un projecteur de façon à projeter l'image mappée par vidéo sur l'objet physique. Dans certains exemples, un utilisateur peut sélectionner une ou plusieurs caractéristiques pour un ou plusieurs objets parmi des objets d'une pièce en exposition par l'intermédiaire d'une interface utilisateur. Le système projette ensuite des images mappées par vidéo présentant les caractéristiques sélectionnées sur les objets physiques. Le système peut permettre à un utilisateur d'enregistrer des sélections de caractéristiques et d'acheter ou de demander des informations supplémentaires concernant des objets présentant des caractéristiques sélectionnées.
