Peppy Projector
by Robert M Ochshorn, Sam Kronick
Projector with telephoto lens on a servo, for targetable high-resolution projection.
Later: Chipper Camera (2015).
A 1080p projector covering a 10-foot wall has a resolution of 16 DPI, which is insufficient for text and detailed graphics.
But if we complement the low-resolution projection with small but targetable high-resolution areas, we can bring selected surfaces "into focus" as needed.
From the email below:
With Peppy Projector and Chipper Camera, the two servo-based modules we’ve conceptualized and started to assemble so far, we inch towards a more seamless union of digital into the physical. Now that we can superimpose high-resolution projection over a large area, media can come alive wherever it is and we need not shift our attention to a fixed screen.
