A Study on Image Projection Method with Less Flatness in Character Live Performance

Abstract

In recent years, it has become popular to use a combination of a projector and a simple transparent screen to represent a life-size character, and this method is widely used in live character performances. However, since the projection surface is flat, the characters appear to be flat when viewed from an angle. In this paper, we propose a new method to reduce the flatness of the projected image. In this study, we propose a multi-viewpoint video presentation method for character live performances, which presents appropriate images according to the position of the observer.
