Practical Multi-Projector Display Design

Browne\, Cameron; Majumder\, Aditi; Brown\, Michael S.

Majumder and Brown have written an excellent book covering all of the fundamental issues that the practitioner or student will need in order to understand multi-projector displays and their applications. The authors strike a good balance between theory and practice throughout the text and include many useful images and diagrams that make the book clear and readable. The final chapter, on advanced methods, presents several stimulating ideas, while the appendices contain a collection of important supplementary topics. In all, the book provides a useful introduction to the present state of affairs for students to absorb and enlarge upon in the course of their own research.—Mark Hereld, Argonne National Laboratory Camera-assisted techniques can drastically lower the cost of projector-based displays. This is the most practical and thorough book on installing and operating flexible, seamless multi-projector systems.—Ramesh Raskar, Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs
