h2. Project Overview

*Issue:* When two projectors cast images onto the same flat screen, the overlapping portion becomes brighter than the surrounding area, causing uneven illumination).

*Method:* Identify where the projections intersect and generate smoothly varying alpha masks so that each projector’s contribution transitions gradually across the shared zone)

*Output:* A lightweight, reproducible prototype using Python and OpenCV that demonstrates the blending behavior on static images).

---

h2. Objectives

* Clarify the problem and choose an achievable solution strategy before starting development.

* Build an alpha-blending workflow and refine it until the overlap becomes visually uniform from a standard viewing distance.

* Test the approach using a controlled set of images, documenting parameters and results to ensure the experiment can be repeated.

*Success metric: the blended region should show no noticeable edge or brightness jump.

---

h2. Scope & Operating Assumptions

* *System setup:* two projectors aligned toward a flat projection surface, with their optical axes roughly perpendicular to the screen.

* *Content type:* initial work focuses on still images, with possible extension to video later.

* *Overlap shape:* treated as a roughly rectangular band where the blending weights decrease linearly from one projector to the other.

* *Calibration approach:* prioritize simple, consistent procedures, introducing further correction only if visible imperfections remain.
