projection mapping

Projection mapping is an immersive display technique that uses precisely calibrated projectors to transform physical surfaces — walls, floors, ceilings, and architectural forms — into dynamic visual canvases.

Unlike traditional flat screens, projection mapping adapts content to the geometry of a space, creating the illusion that environments themselves are animated, responsive, and alive.

Projectors are placed to match the perspective of the space when projecting content.

Software is used to map, warp, and align video content to the specific surfaces of the space.

Successful projection mapping visuals depend on expert content design and environmental mapping.

Projection mapping blends seamlessly into existing structures without introducing visible hardware.

Entire rooms can be transformed into immersive environments that envelop visitors.

Ideal for narrative-driven experiences, educational exhibits, and powerful thematic journeys that scale.

where it’s used

Branded environments designed for storytelling, from permanent galleries to traveling exhibitions.

Create experiential zones that drive foot traffic and transform public spaces into attractions.

Permanent projection installations that adapt to rotating programming and performances.

Large-scale building facades to create immersive light shows, storytelling experiences, and spectacles.

projection mapping vs glasses-free 3d

  • Dependence on controlled lighting conditions
  • Surface-specific calibration and maintenance
  • Limited perception of true depth and volume
  • Can be used in many environmental conditions
  • Easily added to immersive environments
  • True stereoscopic 3D and depth

Magnetic 3D delivers proprietary glasses-free multiview 3D displays that create real volumetric presence — visible across wide viewing angles and multiple perspectives.

glasses-free 3d + projection

Projection mapping transforms walls and architecture.

Glasses-free 3D displays introduce true volumetric elements that appear to exist in front of the surface.

Together, they create environments that feel alive — not just animated.
