Abstract
An interactive projector includes an imaging section adapted to take an image of a projected screen, a correlation value calculation section adapted to calculate a correlation value between each of template images used to detect the pointing element and a taken image taken by the imaging section and including the pointing element to generate a first correlation value for each of the template images, a correlation value map generation section adapted to generate a correlation value map representing the correlation values between the plurality of template images and the taken image based on the plurality of first correlation values generated for the respective template images, and a pointing element detection section adapted to extract a high correlation value area in the correlation value map, and calculate a centroid of the correlation values in the high correlation value area to thereby detect a tip position of the pointing element.
