Intro to Projection Mapping

TYPES OF PROJECTION MAPPING

2D to 2D: &nbsp2D video on 2D surface, or camera-projector mapping 2D to 3D: &nbspmap 2D videos or images onto faces of 3D object 3D to 3D: &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp map 3D (perspective) renders of virtual object onto the real one
Static vs. Interactive

SIMPLE 2D MAPPING

    perspective warping (cornerpoints)
    MapMap, MadMapper, TouchDesigner, Unity, etc. 
   (infrared) cameras 
  

   
    SOME EXAMPLES:

2D OBJECT MAPPING

Map 2D video onto faces of a physical 3D object: - multiple 2D surfaces (potentially at various angles) - input & output mapping: 'unwrapping' & perspective warping - MapMap / MadMapper / TouchDesigner / etc. - great when the object is not overly complex

True 3D object mapping

map 3D (perspective) renders of object onto a real object

Uses a virtual 3D model of whatever you are projecting on
Map complex objects: no tedious mapping of individual surfaces
Allows for effects like re-lighting
Projected effects that are NOT 'flat' (i.e. colors, textures, shadows, etc.) can still look correct from a single 'sweet spot' (anamorphosis)

3D object mapping HOW TO

SOME 3D OBJECT MAPPING TOOLS: - fSpy (camera (or projector!) viewpoint estimation)

3D modeling
3D scanning (Kinect, LIDAR, photogrammetry, handheld, etc.)
3D printing / laser cutting (create sculpture from 3D design)
output from Blender / Unity / Unreal / Processing / etc.
Syphon / Spout
