When starting your warping - do not use the mouse to move the adjustment points. So if you want to swap projector inputs – just reattach the input cables appropriately. I had to completely reinstall Matrox GXM software to put things back to normal. While the Windows Desktop was still working, the Immersive Display warping program was starting display from central projector, no matter what settings were. After cycling through it, the Matrox output completely ignored my left projector. Note “Swap Displays” button in the above picture. Here are my current settings for the display properties and Matrox GXM software. For this light bleeding issue there is a special “Mask” feature in the Immersive Display program that will apply another user-created image, masking those areas so the light just does not go there from the projector.īefore “Mask” feature the only other option was to build a physical mask around the projector lens to block the unwanted light areas. There will be still highlighted areas above/under your screen even after warping – which might not be too bad on the black material. Obviously, with the projectors on the ceiling the curves of the projected image will be upside down – greater curve on bottom of the image and smaller curve on top. Note also, that the pictures I show were done in “projectors on the floor” position.
You may lose resolution pixels in vertical direction as a result, since both lower and upper image borders are curved, one more than another. You need to fit that crooked image into your curved screen.
There is no image distortion on the left and just slight one on the right. The screen shape adjustments that I did to decrease the distortions at the ends of the screen succeeded completely. Warping/blending operations will be repeated when the projectors are placed on the ceiling, after they are fine tuned and tightened up.
If you have the ceiling height over 8 ft, that should not be a problem.Īfter getting my failed projector back from warranty service it was time to do the final projectors adjustments and initial test for image warping/soft blending. Can’t say for sure right now, but it looks they may overlap by a few centimeters – may be I will have to move the shell a bit back from the screen. My ceiling is only 235 cm height and that presents extra problem since the increased height of the projectors “2-storey” placement may interfere with the top of the 737 shell which is 183 cm,( according to FDS data) and should stand on ~ 8 inch simulator base. And if there is still a little bit of distortions they are at the far ends of the screen, at the peripheral of the view. The slight shape distortion can be compensated by image warping software. Along with changing the screen shape that gives me roughly equal distance from lenses to the screen.
