Abstract
A system for communicating information about one or both of an object with a scanned surface and an object at least partially concealed by the scanned surface comprises a scanner and a projector. The scanner is adapted to scan the surface to obtain information that is unattainable through visual observation. The projector is adapted to project an image related to the obtained information onto the scanned surface. The projected image is a dynamic image that is mapped in substantially real-time to a location on the scanned surface from or through which the information is obtained.
