  Description     : Open source video mapping software

MapMap is a free/open source video mapping software.


Projection mapping, also known as video mapping and spatial augmented reality, is a projection
technology used to turn objects, often irregularly shaped, into a display surface for video 
projection. These objects may be complex industrial landscapes, such as buildings. By using 
specialized software, a two or three dimensional object is spatially mapped on the virtual 
program which mimics the real environment it is to be projected on. The software can interact 
with a projector to fit any desired image onto the surface of that object. This technique is 
used by artists and advertisers alike who can add extra dimensions, optical illusions, and 
notions of movement onto previously static objects. The video is commonly combined with, or 
triggered by, audio to create an audio-visual narrative.
