Mesh Mode (Projection Mapping)

Mesh Mode is an optional mode of operation within Delta which can project onto any shaped screen. For example, in a live event building projection, a laser scan of the building creates a 3D CAD model, which is imported to Delta for media to be projection mapped onto.

In the example below, Delta uses a CAD model of a 3D figurine, with virtual projector positions matching the real-life positions, to project onto the real 3D figurine using 2 projectors:

The media for mesh mode is usually created in a 3D modelling package, then output in any of the movie formats listed above. Media can be UV-Mapped onto the mesh (by the content creator) or projected from a virtual eyepoint within Delta onto the 3D Mesh (or meshes).

Media Configurations

UV Mapped media or Flat Plane projection from an eyepoint

3D CAD model in OBJ format

Up to 16 simultaneous meshes, 16 eyepoints within Delta
