12.0 EDGE-BLENDING SETUP<br />

12.1 Introduction<br />

Edge-blending is a method whereby two or more video/data projectors are<br />

used together with part of their images overlapping, thereby creating a wider<br />

(or taller) display more suitable for showing wide-screen video images. The<br />

term edge-blending relates to the fact that the overlap needs to be carefully<br />

handled to prevent the overlap causing image brightness problems.<br />

This guide is intended to summarise how to setup such projectors when used<br />

with a suitable number of TV One’s CORIO®2 scaling engines. The C2-7000<br />

series are dual processors and therefore require only a single unit to perform<br />

both tasks, whereas other units will generally require two units to be used<br />

together, with a distribution amplifier on the input so that both units receive an<br />

identical video source.<br />

Basic method of overlapping two projection images to create a larger one.<br />

Because the two overlapping areas will create a brighter than normal image,<br />

‘blending’ is performed on the edges to allow seamless merging of the images<br />

together. The ‘blend’ is basically an S-shaped curve that is applied to<br />

gradually reduce the brightness of the image at the edge, so that they can<br />

overlap properly:
