Abstract
A projection image correcting apparatus for correcting, according to a three-dimensional shape of a projection surface, an original image to be projected, includes a projecting unit configured to project a pattern image on the projection surface, by controlling an image projecting device; a capturing unit configured to obtain a captured image of the projection surface on which the pattern image is projected, by controlling an image capturing device; a feature point extracting unit configured to extract feature points in the captured image corresponding to feature points in the pattern image; and a three-dimensional coordinates measuring unit configured to measure, by triangulation using the extracted feature points, three-dimensional coordinates of a plurality of measuring points on the projection surface corresponding to the feature points; and a reliability calculating unit configured to calculate reliabilities of the measuring points.
