Abstract

L’invention concerne un appareil et un procédé pour générer une ombre sur une surface du monde réel, l’ombre se rapportant à un objet virtuel dans un univers de jeu, par exemple. L’appareil (24) comprend une source de lumière (26), des moyens récepteurs (28) pour recevoir une description du monde réel et des moyens générateurs d’ombre (30) qui commandent la source de lumière de manière à générer une ombre à projeter sur la surface du monde réel (18) en fonction de la description du monde réel reçue. Il s’agit donc d’un appareil qui procure des effets d’ombre dans une pièce en vue d’accentuer les impressions ressenties en regardant un film ou en jouant à un jeu.
