摘要

1 INTRIDUCTION Recently, there has been an increasing number of examples of dynamic projection mapping (DPM) applied to plants and animals. However, objects such as animals and plants are deformable, and it is difficult to obtain their shape or attach markers in advance; thus, these objects present a problem for DPM. Here, we propose an automatic generation method of DPM specially designed for silkworms. In addition, the system automatically generates visualeffect animations based on the shape of the projected object. Using this system, we conducted an experiment of projection on a real silkworm. Projections in the Forest [Schoor and Mawad 2014] is one example of a work in which PM is applied to plants and animals. In this previous work, static projection mapping was performed for plants and animals of the forest. Image registration for the mapping was performed manually by the artists, which required a substantial amount of time. For plant leaves with individual motion, a method of DPM that considers the occlusion of the projection area by the viewer has been proposed [Sueyoshi and Morimoto 2019]. This method automatically generates effects that match the shape of the plant. However, leaves exhibit small deformations, and it is difficult
