Research
Materials needed
- Two projectors
- Two video cameras
- Two fish eye lenses
- Or something similar that will show the bulk of a room from a single perspective.
- Not concerned with visual distortion.
Setup
- Projectors need to be about midway up the opposite wall that they're projecting onto to ensure maximum image size.
- Relative to the size of the wall being projected on.
- Cameras ideally would be positioned middle of the wall being projected on.
- Seeing as how this is impractical a position high on the wall pointing down over the room is acceptable.
- Video from the cameras need to go to the projectors in the rooms opposite their location.
