1. An automatic calibration method for a projector-imaging device system including a semi-transparent screen, the method comprising: causing an image sequence to be captured from the semi-transparent screen and through the semi-transparent screen while a calibration pattern having features is displayed and not displayed in an alternating succession on the semi-transparent screen; creating a temporal correlation image from the image sequence and a discrete binary signal; identifying peaks in a spatial cross correlation image generated from the temporal correlation image, where a pattern of the identified peaks corresponds to a pattern of the features in the calibration pattern; transforming the peaks to coordinates of corrected feature points; and determining whether the projector-camera system is calibrated by comparing the corrected feature points with a ground truth set of coordinates for the features.
