Seamlessly joining multiple projectors

This isn’t so easy to do. There are a few different options:

1) The software route

Open Source VVVV

vvvv is a graphical programming environment for easy prototyping and development. It is designed to facilitate the handling of large media environments with physical interfaces, real-time motion graphics, audio and video that can interact with many users simultaneously.

C-nario

C-nario’s state of the art seamless projection application breaks down the barriers of traditional wall casting and provides endless possibilities for multiple, high definition displays projection on any shape, any size, 360 degrees surface. Now you can enjoy seamless projection with digital signage added values.

Sol7

Sol7 corrects imagery for projecting:
* onto non-planar screen shapes such as curved screen displays
* from unusual angles
* a seamless image from multiple projectors
* any combination of the above to achieve an immersive visual display

Sol7 is a versatile software tool that can be used to:
* align real-time content onto curved and non-planar screens
* align movies onto curved and non-planar screens
* edge blend multiple projectors
* align and edge blend multi-projector displays
* align and edge blend stereoscopic displays
* align and edge blend curved screen displays
* align unique display systems

Dataton Watchout

This doesn’t just meld the displays in all kinds of funny angles, it also supports loads of different feeds: live video, file kinds, different sound files, etc.

Scalable Display

Scalable Display Technologies makes trailblazing software used to calibrate multiple projector digital displays. Our auto-calibration system brings simplicity, reliability and brilliant high-resolution to displays across many industries and applications.

We help partners in a wide variety of markets enable Scalable auto-calibration in their products for cost-effective, eye-catching results.

2. The hardware route

One Shot program – auto aiming for snipers

Lockheed Martin’s objective is to deliver 15 field-testable and hardened prototype systems by October 2011 that provides the capability to profile downrange crosswind and range to target in near real time, at longer ranges, and improved probability of a first round hit.

The system’s integrated spotter scope ISS should measure crosswinds, maximum effective range of the weapon, temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity, cant and pointing angles, and GPS coordinates, as well as allow direct day and night observation of targets with continuous updates of the aim point offset corrections, with no alignment verification of the laser/crosswind optics to the spotting scope necessary.

The rifle scope also should communicate the aim point offset and expected crosswind variability to the rifle scope using a wired or wireless data link

via Lockheed Martin to continue One Shot program electro-optics work to help snipers hit targets in crosswinds – Military & Aerospace Electronics.
