Abstract

Example embodiments may relate to methods and systems for providing a higher-resolution segment within a larger lower-resolution projection onto a projection surface. For example, the system may receive pose data corresponding to a viewing location relative to the projection surface. The system may then determine, based on the pose data, a target portion of an image frame of image data. As a result, the system may cause a first projector to project at least the target portion onto the projection surface and cause a second projector to project at least a remaining portion of the image frame of the image data onto the projection surface. The projections of the target portion and the remaining portion may collectively provide a complete projection of the image data on the projection surface and a projection-surface resolution of the target portion may be higher than a projection-surface resolution of the remaining portion.
