The projectors project an image over the glass portion of the corresponding window and surrounding surfaces. The image includes a dark center region that is aligned with the glass portion of the corresponding window, reducing undesired effect on passengers. The dark center region may reduce a reflective glare from the glass portion of the corresponding window. The image may include an outer region around the dark center region, which may be brighter than the dark center region. The outer region may illuminate a window bezel and/or a portion of a cabin sidewall. The aircraft may include a plurality of cameras positioned to acquire an outside image that may be added to the image projected by the projectors.
