The granted patent US12075200B2 describes a sophisticated projecting system that integrates an image projector with a processor to enhance image quality based on environmental conditions. The system is designed to project images onto a surface while dynamically adjusting parameters such as total luminous flux, color gamut, and image size in response to brightness information gathered from the surrounding area. The processor can select and modify these parameters to ensure optimal luminance, particularly as ambient brightness changes. Additionally, the projector can operate in different modes, utilizing various combinations of red, green, and blue light to achieve higher luminance levels.

Furthermore, the system incorporates advanced features that allow it to respond to the presence and movement of bodies around the projected surface. The processor can obtain information about moving bodies, such as their position and direction, and adjust the projected image accordingly to maintain an optimal viewing experience. This includes altering the projected position, size, and even the contents of the image based on the detected movement. The patent also outlines methods for controlling the projector's zoom lens and mirror angles to enhance image projection further. Overall, the technology aims to create a more adaptive and responsive projection system that improves visual clarity and user interaction in varying lighting conditions.
