We present Chromotion, a high-speed projection method that renders intended colors along the motion trajectories of moving objects. When an object moves across a high speed temporally multiplexed frame sequence, its occlusion of the projected patterns can, through persistence of vision, produce motion dependent colors along its path. Chromotion exploits this phenomenon by decomposing each static image into a short sequence in which target color frames are interleaved with a single complementary color frame. This temporal design allows moving objects to sample the sequence so that the perceived color along their motion paths converges to the target color, while stationary regions still integrate to the original static color. We built a prototype and conducted a camera based technical evaluation together with a user evaluation. The results show that Chromotion reliably produces the target color on motion trajectories without degrading static color fidelity. Because the approach requires no body or gaze tracking and no decoding of embedded information, it scales to public settings and supports multiuser and multimodal interactions. We also discuss limitations, and outline application scenarios such as public, ambient displays that blend into the environment.

We propose a gaze-guiding method called MOSion to adjust the guiding strength reacted to observers’ motion based on a high-speed projector and the afterimage effect in the human vision system. Our method decomposes the target area into mosaic patterns to embed visual cues in the perceived images. The patterns can only direct the attention of the moving observers to the target area. The stopping observer can see the original image with little distortion because of light integration in the visual perception. The precomputation of the patterns provides the adaptive guiding effect without tracking devices and computational costs depending on the movements. The evaluation and the user study show that the mosaic decomposition enhances the perceived saliency with a few visual artifacts, especially in moving conditions. Our method embedded in white lights works in various situations such as planar posters, advertisements, and curved objects.
