• Abstract: Projector compensation seeks to correct geometric and photometric distortions that occur when images are projected onto nonplanar or textured surfaces. However, most existing methods are highly setup-dependent, requiring fine-tuning or retraining whenever the surface, lighting, or projector-camera pose changes. Progress has been limited by two key challenges: (1) the absence of large, diverse training datasets and (2) existing geometric correction models are typically constrained by specific spatial setups; without further retraining or fine-tuning, they often fail to generalize directly to novel geometric configurations. We introduce SIComp, the first Setup-Independent framework for full projector Compensation, capable of generalizing to unseen setups without fine-tuning or retraining. To enable this, we construct a large-scale real-world dataset spanning 277 distinct projector-camera setups. SIComp adopts a co-adaptive design that decouples geometry and photometry: A carefully tailored optical flow module performs online geometric correction, while a novel photometric network handles photometric compensation. To further enhance robustness under varying illumination, we integrate intensity-varying surface priors into the network design. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SIComp consistently produces high-quality compensation across diverse unseen setups, substantially outperforming existing methods in terms of generalization ability and establishing the first generalizable solution to projector compensation. The code and dataset are available on our project page: https://hai-bo-li.github.io/SIComp/

• CompenHR: Efficient Full Compensation for High-resolution Projector [68.42060996280064]
  Full projector compensation is a practical task of projector-camera systems. It aims to find a projector input image, named compensation image, such that when projected it cancels the geometric and photometric distortions. State-of-the-art methods use deep learning to address this problem and show promising performance for low-resolution setups. However, directly applying deep learning to high-resolution setups is impractical due to the long training time and high memory cost.

In our experiments, DeProCams shows clear advantages over previous arts with promising quality and being fully differentiable.
