Interactive multi-resolution display using a projector mounted mobile robot in intelligent space

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel interactive multi-resolution display system. The proposed system is based on a projector-mounted mobile robot in an Intelligent Space. The Intelligent Space can calculate the location of the region of interest (ROI) by recognizing the user's pointing gesture. The steerable projector mounted on the mobile robot can improve the brightness and resolution of the ROI of a large image projected by a stationary projector installed in the Intelligent Space. In the proposed system, the user is not required to hold any apparatuses for interacting with the display. Additionally, the proposed system is easy to use because it is designed with the natural and intuitive hand movement of user in mind. In the experiments, we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed system. © 2012 Lee et al.
