Fractal Set-up
Pitfalls
- Printer problem - “I still have the printer problem where I can print the test page but not set printer as server default”
- Deleted test printer to make default to printer
- Calibration - Overexposure/Apriltag cut off
- Turn down exposure on calibrate page
- Print calibration page to fit entire image
- “Lots of flickering”
- Turn down camera exposure
- Calibration, z plane camera close to projected screen
- Being able to recalibrate in the middle
- Hardware set-up. Finding a good configuration
- Does webcam need to be perfectly perpendicular vertically?
- What makes sense for ultra short throw projects
- Calibration challenges
- What are the tolerances of the hardware?
- Webcam, projector, understanding the sizing of calibration sheet, april tags
- Calibration challenges
- Lack of feedback
- Ultra short throw projectors towards the end of the screen
- Suggestions
- Having a start-up page once calibration is successful
- Feedback on the calibration stage, what we should be looking for
- Maybe having quadrants or key points to get for calibration sheet
- Overall having more feedback
- Webcam was too high up - meant the folk interface was extending far beyond the system
Set ups
- Examples
