| ] With video projectors images can be displayed that are] larger than the devices themselves. However, we have to
 ] give up living space and ambience to set up artificial
 ] canvases that have to be as large as the desired image.
 ] Smart projectors are able to display correct images onto
 ] arbitrary existing screen surfaces, like wallpapered
 ] walls or window curtains. Thus it can function without an
 ] artificial canvas and consequently leaves a bit more
 ] freedom to us in the decision on how to arrange our
 ] living space. Our smart projectors combine camera
 ] feedback with structured light projection to gain
 ] information about the screen surface and the environment.
 ] The calibration of such a device is fast, fully automatic
 ] and robust, and the correction of video signals can be
 ] achieved in real-time. Neither geometry information nor
 ] projector or camera parameters need to be known. Instead,
 ] the entire calibration and correction (geometry and
 ] color) is done on a per-pixel level - supported by
 ] modern pixel shader hardware.
