video projection

Light-thrown moving images

Video projection is the display of images or video onto a surface using a projector—typically a screen, wall, or other flat area.

The technology appears in home theaters, business presentations, classrooms, and outdoor movie screenings.

Large-scale video projection transforms buildings and landmarks into canvases for art installations and advertising: The light show used video projection to animate the cathedral facade.
