Abstract

A method for generating a mask and a projection apparatus for performing the method are provided. The method includes: projecting a first pattern onto a projection surface, wherein the projection surface includes a non-planar region, and the first pattern includes multiple first straight lines; shooting a first image of the projection surface on which the first pattern is rendered; finding at least one first specific line segment in the first image, wherein each first specific line segment includes at least one first inflection point; delineating a first contour based on the at least one first inflection point in a case of determining that the at least one first inflection point in the first image is suitable for delineating the first contour; and generating a first mask pattern based on the first contour in a case of determining that the first contour matches a region contour of the non-planar region.
