ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a method and system to render an image that impinges upon a non-planar surface to attenuate, if not abrogate, distortions introduced by the surface that features mapping the image as a plurality of spaced-apart planar cells to coordinates of the non-planar surface to produce a plurality of the inverted planar cells, with each of the cells including multiple pixels of the image, minimizing a distance between the cells while minimizing a change in the distance of each of the plurality of cells with respect to the surface coordinates; and impinging the plurality of planar cells upon the non-planar surface.
