Novel approaches have taken augmented reality (AR) beyond traditional eye-worn or hand-held displays, enabling new application areas for museums, research, industry, and artistic expression. The authors developments in the field enable innovations in a number of areas, including museum displays, virtual showcases, hologram interaction and imbedded entertainment with smart projectors. This book discusses spatial augmented reality approaches that exploit large optical elements and video-projectors, using interactive rendering algorithms, calibration techniques, and display examples.
