IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND IMAGE DISTORTION CORRECTION METHOD OF THE SAME

摘要

An image display apparatus includes a projector 2 receiving an image signal and projecting image light and a screen 1 including a projection plane of arbitrary shape. The projector 2 and screen 1 are connected with link mechanisms 3a to 3c and link mechanisms 3b and 3d. The relative position and posture between the projector 2 and the screen 1 are automatically or manually changeable. The relative position and posture between the projector 2 and the screen 1 are measured, and correction parameters for correcting distortion of image light projected from the projector 2 onto the screen 1 are calculated from the previously set viewing position of the viewer and the shape of the projection plane of the projector 2. Based on the calculated correction parameters, the image signal inputted into the projector 2 is subjected to distortion correction processing. It is therefore possible to allow the viewer to see a clear image even if the position of the screen is changed.
