Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for managing projection areas on a surface. A search module is configured to search for one or more markers defining one or more projection areas on a surface. An area module is configured to select a usable projection area from the one or more projection areas on the surface. A boundary module is configured to determine a boundary for the usable projection area. A constraint module is configured to constrain a projection from a projector onto the surface within the boundary of the usable projection area in response to the boundary module determining the boundary of the usable projection area.
