Dear OSG Forum readers,

as we recently installed a multi-projector-based viewing screen I am currently 
working on its calibration. I managed to fix most of the displaying issues so 
far; however, one issue remains that I am quite unsure of how to approach it. 

Due to the mounting of the projectors in relation to the viewing screen, the 
projected image is distorted in a way that the projected image no longer 
resembles a rectangele but a trapezium. To give you a better understanding of 
the situation, I made a small sketch to visualise the problem (compare 
attachment).

The grey area is the projection area, while the blue frame resembles the area 
displayed by the projector. As can be seen in the image, whilst the left and 
bottom corners are quite well aligned, the upper right corner flees the 
projection area. 

Since the mounting of the projectors cannot be changed or adjusted further, I 
have to solve the problem on software side. I was thinking of somehow manually 
creating a perspective distortion matrix, such that I can "move" that corner so 
it fits in the projection area. However, I am a bit lost how to do that.

Is there anyone who could point me into the direction of how such a matrix 
could be created and what matrix to use at all? Intuitively, I've searched a 
bit in the direction of a projetion matrix, but couldn't quite find the right 
way to do it yet!

Anyways, thank you very much in advance for reading :)

Best regards,

Alexander
