Ivan Posted September 28, 2019 Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 I am interested in knowing if there are any projectors that can be adjusted so as to project circular video (from a standard 16:9 or 4:3 format) at or near the consumer/'prosumer' level. Laser and close projection to surface necessary. The projection size needed is somewhat modest (9' diameter would suffice). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dataton Partner RBeddig Posted September 30, 2019 Dataton Partner Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 All you need to do is to put a circular mask on top of all the rest of your content. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesemann Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Not knowing what you need exactly... I could imagine that looking into texturing a 3d object might do something for you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member matkeane Posted October 1, 2019 Member Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 The question is not entirely clear, but I wonder whether the OP was asking about anamorphic lenses - like the concave mirror adapters used to shoot 360 degree video - or motorised mirror heads which allow a circular image to be projected in different directions... I've never seen the concave lenses used for projection, but there was a discussion on another forum about dome projections using a single projector and a convex hemispheric mirror - although apparently it's both fiddly to align and expensive. An example of motorised mirror heads can be found here: https://www.dynamicprojection.com/mirror-head-en/ - and I believe I saw a demo of something similar from Panasonic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
