Approaches for transferring a file using a virtualized application. A virtualized application executes within a virtual machine residing on a physical machine. When the virtualized application is instructed to download a file stored external to the physical machine, the virtualized application displays an interface which enables at least a portion of a file system, maintained by a host OS, to be browsed while preventing files stored within the virtual machine to be browsed. Upon the virtualized application receiving input identifying a target location within the file system, the virtualized application stores the file at the target location. The virtualized application may also upload a file stored on the physical machine using an interface which enables at least a portion of a file system of a host OS to be browsed while preventing files in the virtual machine to be browsed.
An automatic calibration method for a projector-camera system including a semi-transparent screen is disclosed herein. An image sequence is caused 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. A temporal correlation image is created from the image sequence and a discrete binary signal. Peaks are identified 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. The peaks are transformed to coordinates of corrected feature points. A comparison of the corrected feature points and a ground truth set of coordinates for the features is used to determine whether the projector-camera system is calibrated.
