Calibrating the interaction area
Motioncube Player has been equipped with convenient tools that allow you to calibrate the camera in relation to the image displayed from the projector to obtain the correct interactive projection environment.
Automatic calibration
If you use Motioncube IR Kit on your device then you can use the automatic calibration process. This option is especially useful for end users who change the location of their device (e.g. transport it on a tripod).
Info
The automatic calibration process requires changing the camera mode so that the camera can see the chessboard projected by the projector. Motioncube IR Kit has a suitable driver for changing the camera operating mode, with which Motioncube Player communicates in the process of automatic camera calibration.Go to Menu > Options > Advanced and select Auto Camera Calibration.
On the first screen, you'll see a message that there are no items in the hotspot. They could interfere with the calibration process.
