Abstract

An immersive display system based on single projector and curved surface reflector is presented in this paper. In this system, the light illuminated by one projector is reflected by a curved surface reflector to a cylindrical rear projection screen. This system implements uniform enlargement of the projected image on both the horizontal and vertical direction and displays virtual scene of large continuous field of view. With the help of the curved surface reflector, the image distortion caused by curvature of the screen can be eliminated without using complicated image transformation algorithms. Additionally, seamless image can be obtained by using single projector. The projection experiment proves that this system can achieve satisfactory immersive display quality.
