Abstract
Present embodiments provide a projection mapping system that includes multiple trackers and an actuatable object. The actuatable object may include multiple tracking cameras positioned on the actuatable object, such that the multiple tracking cameras are configured to detect optical signals of the multiple trackers and to generate tracking signals indicative of detection of the multiple trackers. Additionally, the projection mapping system includes an object controller configured to transmit the tracking signals, and receive instructions to actuate the actuatable object. Also, the projection mapping system includes a system controller configured to receive the tracking signals, determine a position of the actuatable object based on the tracking signals, and generate projection instructions based on the determined position. Also, the system includes a projector communicatively coupled to the system controller, such that the projector is configured to project images onto the actuatable object based on the projection instructions.
