About Creator

Creator is a tool to measure projection systems with digital cameras. Creator generates data that is the basis for Mapper2d/3d to calculate warping and blending information and create exports for different devices/applications.

Creator needs to capture testpatterns on the projectors. For that purpose it needs:

1. A testpattern generation program running on display computers attached to the projectors (PatternGenerator

2. network connection to display computers to communicate with the testpattern generation program

3. a calibrated camera attached to the computer, where Creator is running on

The following chapters describe the UI components of Creator, the basic workflow of doing calibrations and the PatternGenerator software that is needed to produce the testpatterns on projectors.
