Review of methods for transferring images to tissue. Tips for quickly transferring images How to transfer an image from paper to wood

Needlewomen often have the question of how to transfer a drawing from paper to fabric with maximum efficiency and preservation of important details. Drawing the contours of the image will be required for embroidery - manual or machine. There are many ways to transfer a picture to matter, it is worth considering them in more detail.

Required materials and preparation

Depending on the ways in which the drawing is supposed to be translated, different devices and additional materials may be required. Here's a rough list:

  • carbon paper or tracing paper;
  • thin cloth;
  • simple pencil, chalk;
  • needle;
  • transfer pencil;
  • pins;
  • iron;
  • lamp;
  • glass;
  • a printer;
  • fabric and pattern.

In preparation, you should print the image. You can make a drawing in any program on a computer that makes graphic images and prints them. If the pictures are small, they are printed on one sheet.

All borders should be clear, bold, clearly visible - this will make it easier to transfer the pattern to the fabric. You can even artificially increase the contrast and saturation of the lines, if possible, remove light details from the picture.

Translation of drawing into matter

Below are the main methods by which the image is translated to the base.

Copy paper

The easiest way to translate a picture is based on the use of carbon paper. It comes in different colors:

  • the black;
  • white;
  • color.

It is necessary to select the color of the carbon copy taking into account the shade of the matter. It is easier to find dark paper on sale, white paper is rare. To translate a picture, put a carbon copy, on top - a printed blank. A simple pencil is drawn around the drawing, carefully clicking on the contours. You can prick the contours of the pattern with a needle - colored dots will remain on the fabric, copying the drawing.

A clear result cannot be achieved if the details of the drawing are small: they turn out to be blurry. The technique is suitable only for smooth fabric or burlap. On fuzzy, fluffy fabric, the image will remain blurry.

The disadvantages of the method include the high "staining" ability of carbon paper - usually ugly marks are visible on the fabric.

Cigarette paper

Tracing paper or tissue paper helps transfer the design onto the fabric without carbon paper. The method is used for thick fabrics - velvet, velor, shiny bases.

First, you need to transfer the drawing to tissue paper. Then the paper matrix is \u200b\u200bplaced on top of the fabric, secured with safety pins (instead of them, you can take office clips). Then the drawing is stitched right on the tracing paper with neat stitches, the paper is torn off so as not to damage the threads. The embroidered drawing is ready.

Sprinkling

The decal technique is suitable for all types of fabrics - linen, cotton, silk, smooth or pile. There is no difference in the shade of the fabric - the base can be dark, light. Using the method, you can simultaneously translate a picture into several cuts of matter.

The order of work is as follows:

  1. Prepare the matrix. To do this, you need a board, which should be covered with felt and the required number of sheets of tracing paper should be placed. Their maximum number is 6.
  2. Pin the drawing to the top tracing paper. Puncture the holes in the drawing with a needle as often as possible. The needle should be thick and the spacing between the holes should be equal. To work comfortably, the back of the sewing needle is stuck into the pencil, leaving a sharp tip. The pencil is much more comfortable to hold than a regular needle.
  3. Separate the matrices, lay them out one by one (fabric plus tracing paper), pin them off. Wipe each matrix from the side of the tracing paper with a solution of blue, kerosene, tooth powder. The solution will leave an imprint of the pattern on the fabric through the holes.
  4. Dry the fabric for an hour, remove the tracing paper before that. The matrix can not be thrown away, but the remains of the solution can be brushed off and saved.
  5. Draw the appeared contour of the picture or sew it with a thread.

The solution for light and dark fabrics is prepared differently. In the first case, mix 100 g of purified kerosene, 10 g of blue, 2 g of tooth powder. For the second recipe, combine 100 g of kerosene, 10 g of powder without blueing. It is necessary to mix the product in a ceramic bowl.

Instead of tooth powder, you can use chalk for dark fabrics, and activated carbon for light ones. Some needlewomen simply sprinkle light-colored materials with blue without the use of kerosene.

Transparent fabric

On sale there are thin, transparent fabrics - non-woven, marquise, silk, veil, nylon, georgette, organza. They can also be used to translate a picture if you intend to make the main product from them.

For work, you need to put a drawing, secure the fabric with pins on top. The contours of the picture will be perfectly visible, so from the front side on the fabric you can immediately draw with acrylics without a rough sketch. It is better to work on a thick wooden board, plywood.

Laser printer

For this purpose, you will have to purchase freezer paper. It is usually used to freeze food, but the material has long been adopted by needlewomen. On one side, the paper is smooth and can be easily ironed onto the fabric, leaving prints on it. You should prepare the main fabric on which the drawing will be made (preferably linen, cotton).

Operating procedure:

  1. Cut a sheet of freezer paper equal in size to A4.
  2. Iron the sheet with the shiny side to the fabric, iron all the corners well so that the freezer does not come off.
  3. Cut the fabric along the edges of the sheet so that the threads do not stick out (they can ruin the printer).
  4. Put the workpiece into the laser printer, making sure that the drawing comes out on the right side.
  5. Send the image to print (the printer may fail at first, then the procedure should be repeated).

Important! Always apply a preview before printing an image.

Solvent

You will need to print your drawing on thick, glossy paper to ensure that ink does not seep through it. Then attach the corners of the drawing to the paper with needles, buttons. Prepare a cotton swab, wrap it with a cotton cloth, moisten it in solvent. Saturate paper that is lying on the fabric with solvent.

To improve the result, attach the bottom of the spoon to the drawing, press well along the contour. The ink will seep onto the fabric, which will produce the same image.

other methods

If there is no carbon copy at home, you can try to translate the picture on the window - through the glass. Using tape, fix the fabric and the pattern, then circle it with acrylic paints, a marker. A more "advanced" variation of the method is the use of a light plate.

Some craftswomen trim the outline of the drawing through tracing paper on a sewing machine. This will require some skill and experience, otherwise the image will be uneven. The process is complex and time consuming.

Another option is to use a pencil for translations. They transfer the mirrored drawing onto tracing paper, then apply it to the fabric, iron it with a lot of steam. Such pencils usually do not fit on synthetics, so you will have to use only linen or cotton fabrics.

An easy way to transfer your design is to use thermal transfer paper. It is bought in specialized online stores. The drawing is printed on a printer directly on such paper, then applied to the fabric, ironed with steam. The result will be much better if the printout is done in the workshop - the drawing will turn out to be juicy, it will not smear even after washing.

Resizing a picture

Sometimes you need to change the size of the picture for the fabric - to make it larger or smaller. To do this, the image is divided into approximately equal squares, and a grid is made on clean paper from the same number of squares, but of a larger (smaller) size. Then the drawing is transferred by hand along the lines that are taken from each square.

As a result, you will get a picture with the required parameters. It is best to break the drawing into many squares - this is how the finished drawing will be the most accurate. Then it can be transferred to the fabric in any convenient way.

If you do not know how to draw, but would like to learn, you should start with a simple one - copying drawings. For a start, this can be done using tracing paper. This method is the easiest to implement. Now let's take a closer look at how to transfer a drawing from

Instructions

To transfer a picture, follow the steps outlined below:

  1. Select the image and, putting tracing paper on it, with firm pressure draw around all the lines, using a black acrylic pen.
  2. Now we turn over the tracing paper and put it face down on the sheet of paper to which you want to transfer the image.
  3. We press firmly and pass on it with a hot iron.
  4. Now we remove the tracing paper and additionally draw lines that are not clear enough.
  5. The image is ready.

This method is used for simple pictures that do not contain a lot of complex details. Now you know how to transfer a drawing from paper to paper in a simple way. Having tried it, you can proceed to others.

More complicated way

You can use the copy grid to transfer complex patterns. With its help, it is also possible to reduce or increase the scale of the image itself.

  • original drawing;
  • transparencies;
  • paper;
  • duct tape;
  • ruler;
  • pencil.

Instructions

To master this method, follow these steps:

  1. Apply a transparent film to the original image, on which squares of the same size are shown.
  2. We apply the same cell on a blank sheet of paper if the picture is reproduced in the original. How do I transfer a drawing from paper to paper when the image needs to be resized? When increasing the size of the squares are made larger, when decreasing, respectively, smaller.
  3. Now all you have to do is transfer the image by cells.
  4. When the picture is completely transferred with the help of a pencil, you can start painting.

Now you know how to transfer an image from paper to paper. Let's consider other surfaces.

The body as the basis

A tattoo is a highlight of the appearance, but not everyone decides to apply a drawing on the skin, realizing that this decision is made for life. For people who are afraid of such an act, but want to decorate their body with a beautiful image, an excellent solution is. To learn how to transfer a drawing from paper to skin, you need to study the following information. The main stage is a clear drawing of the contours of the future image.

The picture can be applied to the body using:

  • tracing paper.

The first way

For him, you need to do the following:

  1. Selecting a pattern, determining the place of its application, disinfecting the skin.
  2. Transfer of the image to a carbon copy. To do this, put paper on top of the original and carefully outline all of its contours.
  3. We moisten the carbon copy with alcohol and apply it to the body.
  4. To make the outlines well imprinted, circle them again through the carbon paper, being careful to leave it intact.

Second way

It is based on the use of tracing paper. You need to do the following steps:

  1. We draw the drawing itself with a helium pen.
  2. We disinfect the skin and smear it with soap.
  3. We apply tracing paper and outline the contours with a sharp object.
  4. Now we paint over the drawing.

If you do decide to apply a permanent pattern to your body, approach it very carefully. The main thing is to choose a good salon, take an allergic reaction test and check that all tools are disinfected.

How to transfer a drawing from paper to glass

For work, we take an image with good contours and a roll. For transfer, you need to purchase a felt-tip pen - a marker for glass, it fits well and is easily washed off the surface.

Instructions:

  1. We take the film. Its size should be slightly larger than the drawing itself. The film is attached to the surface, which prevents the picture from getting lost.
  2. The image is put on film and outlined thinly and very neatly.
  3. Now the film is carefully transferred with the front side onto the previously prepared surface. Preparation consists in degreasing its front side. Make sure that the film is completely adhered to the glass, get rid of wrinkles and bubbles.
  4. For a clearer transfer, once again along the contour, outline the image with any sharp object.
  5. Now is the time to get rid of the polyethylene. We do this very carefully so as not to smear the drawing. If there are any inaccuracies somewhere, now is the time to fix them.
  6. Now we draw the outline. This can be done with acrylic paints and a brush.
  7. After everything has dried, carefully remove the traces of the marker with cotton swabs dipped in liquid.
  8. Inside, the image is filled in any way. If the technique is stained glass, then everything is poured along the contour.
  9. After drying, for a longer service life of the product, the image can be baked or varnished. It all depends on where this item will be used.

How to transfer a drawing from paper to wood

In order to see your favorite image on a wooden base, you just need to follow the steps outlined below.

For work you will need:

  • drawing printed on a laser printer;
  • wooden plank;
  • acrylic gel medium;
  • flat tool for leveling the picture;
  • paint and rag;
  • soft paraffin or matte glue;
  • 2 brushes.

Instructions:

  1. Image selection. This should be a drawing that will look nice on a wooden base. To give some resemblance to the vintage style, it can be processed in special programs.
  2. The image is printed only on a laser printer, this is the main condition.
  3. A smooth wooden base is selected.
  4. Now apply with an even layer of gel medium. It is he who will help the image to be transferred to the prepared surface.
  5. We place the drawing with the front side to the base. At the moment of connection, bubbles appear, which should be smoothed out if possible.
  6. The work is finished for today, leave everything for the night, continue tomorrow.
  7. Now is the time to remove the paper. To do this, you need to wet it and wipe it with your fingers. Right now you are witnessing a miracle - when you remove the paper, you can see how the image remains on the tree.
  8. Now you can use wood paint. Keep track of its amount so that the image does not darken.
  9. Now apply liquid paraffin. If necessary, the last two steps can be repeated after the first layer has dried.

Other basics for image transfer

Metal is a base, also suitable for such "tricks". For neat and fairly accurate work, two centerlines are drawn on it or the corners of the image are marked. Now let's take a closer look at how to transfer a drawing from paper to metal.

The most common is to use carbon paper for this. Since metal is a very tough material, it is coated with white or light paint. The transfer process begins after the varnish has completely dried, which is applied just before the start of the main work.

Instructions

This method requires compliance with the following rules:

  1. The pattern is very tightly attached to the product. To do this, you can use a soapy solution.
  2. Many craftsmen use a chasing gun for this work. With it, the image is very accurate - almost jewelry work, which, however, takes a very long time and requires some preliminary training.
  3. The tool is taken with three fingers, resting on the ring, which serves as a kind of spring. The coin is located 2-3 mm from the drawing, its light strokes form a dotted line - the main outline of the image is drawn. The smaller the detail of the picture, the tighter it breaks through.
  4. When all the lines have been transferred, you can wash off the paint.
  5. The image can be varnished.

Now you know how to transfer a drawing from paper to paper, to leather, to glass, to wood and to metal. Go ahead for the tools, and good luck in your endeavors!

Wood occupies a special place in the variety of materials used for decoration. This material is notable for its unique texture, environmental friendliness and natural origin. The wood itself, especially varnished or otherwise decorated, is very beautiful. However, at the same time, it often becomes the basis for placing certain images. Moreover, the latter can be transferred independently. And there are several ways to do this.

Unlike paper and canvas, a painting on a tree is something new and interesting in our design. Therefore, such pictures will draw attention to themselves, and those people who want to make an interior that can surprise can consider this particular option.

In addition, you can decorate the tree that is used directly in the decoration, making the interior familiar to many look completely new. In addition, in this way you can decorate a variety of wooden products, from boxes to furniture.

Finally, transferring an image to a wooden surface can be a hobby for children and adults, and for some, it can be a way of earning money. After all, handmade items are actively purchased today.

What needs to be done with the drawing and the tree before transfer

  • Translation of an image on a wood surface, as well as on any other, in some cases is impossible without the effect of mirroring. In the case of an image, this is not so important, however, it is better to make letters and numbers initially mirrored, so that after transfer they take the correct form;
  • Any drawing is best transferred in high resolution. In the process of work, blur may appear, and in the event that the image resolution was initially low, this can greatly degrade the quality of the final result;
  • The quality of the transfer directly depends on how clean and smooth the surface is. Any contamination is unacceptable, as are irregularities. In the latter case, you can use sandpaper;
  • The color of the wood can also play a role in the transfer. It is best to use the lighter options as possible.

Transfer by sublimation paper

A special type of paper that, when heated, can adhere to a surface, while wood is a similar surface. Anything can be printed on such paper, and the process of transferring an image with its help is as simple as possible.

Ironing paper

It is often used when it is necessary to transfer images to a tree for subsequent tracing with a special soldering iron and thus creating a drawing. Someone draws by hand, but others prefer this method. However, the method is also suitable for creating final products, but due to its low cost and simplicity, it is very affordable and popular.

To transfer, you need to print the desired image on a sheet of paper. The sheet itself is laid on a perfectly cleaned and even surface of the tree. In this case, the paper is moistened with a small amount of acetone, which will make the process of transferring the pigment from it to the wood when heated to a better quality.

Important! Every precaution should be taken when working with acetone. Remember that the material has a strong odor and evaporates actively. It is best to work in a ventilated area, and at the same time, you should protect the respiratory organs with a respirator or at least a mask. It is also important to have a fire extinguisher handy and avoid static electricity.

Having stretched the paper soaked in acetone to the required size, we begin to iron it with a hot iron, and after a while the image will be transferred.

Translation with decoupage tape

Decoupage is becoming a very popular hobby, so many people know how to handle the film from it. Having printed the necessary image on it, prepare also white acrylic paint.

It is necessary to perfectly clean the wood, as well as to give it an even surface. Next, we apply a pre-thinned paint in two layers. Moreover, the directions of application should be perpendicular to each other.

The paint must be allowed to dry. After this has happened, the moistened decoupage paper (about 30 seconds soaking in room temperature water) is placed on the surface, removing the base and rubbing with a sponge to ensure a snug fit. After waiting for drying, you can varnish the surface.

Translation with PVA or gel medium

Regardless of the material chosen, the process is roughly the same. However, in the case of gel, the application takes place directly on the board, well, the glue is applied to the photo. The photo itself can be a simple printout on plain paper. If this is important for the image, it is necessary to have a mirrored version in the photo, since later the picture will take the correct form. Further, the procedure is as follows:

  • The wood must be thoroughly cleaned and sanded perfectly to create a level surface. You can use 120 grit sandpaper;
  • Photo processing with glue or wood gel. In the case of the latter, it is necessary to do everything as carefully as possible, without missing the slightest fragment;
  • The sheet must be glued to the lubricated surface, then walk over it with a roller for a better fit, no folds and air bubbles. The stage is extremely important, since it depends on how well the drawing will be translated;
  • Leave the product overnight, after which, as soon as the gel is completely dry, wet the sheet and remove it with a dishwashing sponge. The picture is translated reliably enough, and it is not so easy to erase it. However, it's best not to overdo it. Moreover, in the case of PVA glue, it will be more difficult to erase the paper layer;
  • After all the paper has been removed, make sure there are no marks on the surface, as they may interfere with the next step - varnishing. You can use waterproof or clear acrylic varnish.

Very often we are faced with the question - how to translate a drawing on paper? The question is very important, because all further work depends on the quality of the translated image. You found a wonderful drawing in a book or magazine, or maybe there is a beautiful embroidery in front of you that you want to repeat - the topic of transferring a drawing to paper is for you!

We are faced with a task - it is necessary to re-capture a clear, neat drawing from a sample drawing onto paper, which will then be transferred to another surface: fabric, leather, cardboard, paper, wood or plywood. In some cases, this drawing itself will be the basis for work, for example, as a coloring for children.

Let's consider with you several options for transferring a picture to paper.

OPTION 1.

Let's start with the most interesting and rather old method, which has been used by several generations of craftsmen in their work. He was especially respected by students, at the time of which the technique for printing drawings and texts was not yet so available. Many neat term papers and theses went through GLASS and were successfully defended.

In order for you to be able to transfer any drawing to paper using glass, you need a table lamp, two chairs and glass of any size. That's all - you have a reliable manual copying "technique" at your home under your guidance! Let's look at what to do now and how to transfer the drawing to paper using glazing.

We put on the glass (approximately above the lamp) the sample from which we will reshoot the drawing.

We put a blank sheet of paper on this sample.

A sufficiently bright light from a table lamp allows you to clearly see the pattern through all layers of paper. Take a pencil and trace all the lines of the lower drawing onto the upper blank sheet of paper.

In the event that you do not want the bottom sheet to be damaged from the pressure of the pencil, then circle the lines with light pressure. Then, after turning off the lamp, take a pencil and outline the lines more clearly.

The work is finished, the patterns have been transferred to a new sheet of paper. Thus, you can reshoot drawings not only from a simple sheet, but also from any book and magazine.

Glazing is a great way to transfer a pattern to paper!

It is interesting that the bright light of the lamp breaks through the fabric, so you can reshoot the pattern from the embroidered products. This is done in the same way as when working with paper.

The napkin lies on the glass above the lamp. A blank sheet of paper is superimposed on top and the entire pattern is outlined with a pencil. Keep in mind that the embroidery is slightly convex and the top blank sheet of paper will not fit tightly on the napkin.

Figures translated by the method of glazing are neat. You can start work periodically, giving yourself time to rest, because the drawing lies in place without moving. This method is good for any drawings of any complexity.

OPTION 2.

If the drawing is small in size, then it can be transferred to paper on a regular WINDOW GLASS ... In addition, there are times when there is no opportunity and place to make a structure with glass, chairs and a lamp.

To prevent the bottom sample from moving, secure it to a blank sheet of paper with paper clips. A significant drawback when working - very fasthands get tired.

OPTION 3.

Using COPY PAPER for the translation of the drawing is widely known. For work you need: a sample drawing, carbon paper, blank paper, pencil or pen.

All this is laid in this way - first a blank sheet, then a carbon copy with the coloring side down, a sample of the drawing is placed on top. Paper clips are needed so that nothing moves during work.

With a pencil, all the lines of the drawing are outlined with pressure, which remain on the bottom sheet of paper.

After finishing the work, we remove the carbon copy - the drawing is completely printed on a sheet of paper.

There are several drawbacks of transferring a drawing through a carbon copy - the sample is quickly worn out due to the frequent tracing with a pencil, the work is sloppy, this method is suitable for relatively small drawings.

OPTION 4.

In some cases, you can transfer the drawing directly to a thin cigarettepaper or thicker tracing paper.

This translucent paper is superimposed on a reference drawing, the outlines of which are outlined with a pencil or pen.

That's all. A lot has been written, but you need to know each of these options for translating a picture onto paper. The work of needlewomen is quite diverse - you don't know when what knowledge will come in handy.

Let's summarize our “ manual "ways to translate a picture. So this:

  • glazing over a table lamp,
  • glazing on the window,
  • using carbon paper,
  • using tracing paper or tissue paper.

But! .. Modernity makes its own adjustments to the work of craftsmen. Desired drawing if desired, you can already find it on the Internet. And the pattern you like can bescan and electronically print on a printer.As a result, you will have a drawing on paper ready to work.Due to the fact that there is no manual drawing, time is significantly saved and after printing you can start directly to work.

If you have a photocopier nearby, you can shoot a sample drawing on it, enlarging or reducing it in size if necessary. The person serving this device knows its additional functions. Just tell me what percentage you would like to change the image.

So, the modern way of translating a picture is as follows:

  • scan images from books and magazines and print,
  • find the finished picture in electronic form and print,
  • use a copier to copy,print and resizing the picture.

Copying, printing a picture of any size and color is done using modern technology in a matter of minutes. The print quality is excellent.

But think about it, if so far many masters use a simple pencil to translate drawings onto paper by themselves, then this manual method is not so bad ... Time-tested!

Thank you and see you soon on the pages!

Good day! The fastest, most convenient and economical for myself, I chose the following option:
1 select the image.
2 in graphic editors (well, I used Photoshop in particular), create the size of the image that we need, apply the picture with the top layer, stretch it. I'm saving. then, using the ProPrint program, I print in parts. with the help of the mounting plate, I fix exactly the top row, and here the most important thing. putting in turn under each sheet, the usual stationery carbon paper, I circle the image, thus making the whole drawing. it turns out 1 in 1 as on the original, and then a matter of technology, or rather hands. start sketching!

Transferring a drawing from tracing paper ...

... for beginners and those who are not smart.

I will tell you another time how to transfer a drawing from tracing paper to a matryoshka blank or to the hemispherical surface of the box lid. Now, to understand the process, I will show the simplest technique of manually transferring a drawing from tracing paper to cardboard.

The idea is simple. The transparency of the tracing paper allows you to copy a drawing from one piece of paper to another with sufficient accuracy, keeping the original size.

Why transfer a drawing at all when you can paint the original sketch with paints?

Transferring a drawing from a sketch (picture) to the wall

Then, firstly, in this case, you save the watercolor paper from endless scratching with a pencil and abrasion with an eraser, while the sketch can be erased even to holes. Secondly, you can also copy fragments if some areas in the sketch seem redundant or redundant. Thirdly, if there is a need for re-layout, then the moment of transferring a sketch from tracing paper to paper is the most convenient.

The necessary tools are tracing paper and two pencils. One pencil is hard and sharpened (2H-4H), the other is as soft as possible (4M-6M) and does not have to be sharpened. You can use charcoal instead of a soft pencil, but charcoal will add a lot of dirt to your drawing. An eraser is not desirable in this case.

So, the simplest drawing with the correct transfer technology. We will transfer a photo from a magazine to cardboard.

1. Place the image on a flat surface and fix it, for example, with tape.

2. Put tracing paper over the image and also fix it.

3. We outline the main contours of the image, as well as all the details that are significant for us.

4. Tear off the tracing paper.

5. Turn the tracing paper back (while clean) side up.

6. Rub the back of the tracing paper with a visible drawing with a soft pencil. The photo shows a graphite rod, not charcoal.

7. Attach the cardboard.

8. Attach the tracing paper to the cardboard with the pattern up and the rubbed graphite side down.

9. We outline the contours of the drawing with a pen or pencil.

10. Remove the tracing paper, see the contours of the transferred image and a lot of dirt left over from the graphite.

Advice: To reduce the amount of graphite dirt, do not rub all the free space on the back of the tracing paper. You can rub only those areas where there are lines in the drawing.

Professional and most accurate approach: carefully trace the contour of the drawing with the softest pencil. Only contour without rubbing.

Unprofessional approach - use a carbon copy. Why unprofessional? Because traces of carbon paper are practically not erased with an eraser.

Mounting the projector and connecting to a computer

We will help you find an installer in your city, and your engineer can also install the projector.

The projector connects to a computer or laptop just like any monitor. VGA and HDMI cables are used for image transmission.

If it is impossible to lay cables, you can resort to using special WiFi adapters for projectors capable of streaming video of the required quality.

Projection dimensions and projector position

Maximum projection size is dependent on projector lumen (measured in lumens, designated ANSI lm), ambient light, and projection surface.

muted external lighting:

  • Projector 3000 lumens: 4x3m
  • Projector 4000 lumens: 4.6 x 3.5 m
  • Projector 5000 lumens: 5.2 x 3.9 m
  • Projector 6000 lumens: 5.7x4.3m
  • Projector 8000 Lumens: 6.5x4.9m
  • Projector 10,000 lumens: 7.3 x 5.5 m
  • Projector 15,000 lumens: 8.9 x 6.7 m

Maximum projection dimensions in conditions without external lighting:

  • Projector 3000 lumens: 8x6m
  • 4000 lumens projector: 9.2x7m
  • 5000 lumens projector: 10.4 x 7.8 m
  • Projector 6000 lumens: 11.4 x 8.6 m
  • Projector 8000 lumens: 13 x 9.8 m
  • Projector 10,000 lumens: 14.6 x 11 m
  • Projector 15,000 lumens: 17.8 x 13.4 m

Maximum projection dimensions in conditions daytime outdoor lighting:

  • Projector 3000 lumens: 2x1.5m
  • Projector 4000 lumens: 2.3 x 1.7 m
  • Projector 5000 lumens: 2.6x2m
  • Projector 6000 lumens: 2.8 x 2.1 m
  • Projector 8000 lumens: 3.2 x 2.4 m
  • Projector 10,000 lumens: 3.6 x 2.7 m
  • Projector 15,000 lumens: 4.4 x 3.3 m

Location

Projectors are usually located under the ceiling on a ceiling mount, bracket. Installation on a wall or column is possible. For events, you can place the projector on a table, cabinet, tripod or stand. The distance from the wall to the projector (with an image width of 4 meters) can be between 1.5 and 9 meters, depending on the projector model.

Lighting and projection surface

Ambient lighting affects the contrast of the projection. The less stray light, the brighter and more contrasting the image. It is recommended to close the windows with curtains during the day, and dim the light in the evening. Then the projection will be visible well over a large enough area. If the ambient light is bright, you should reduce the projection area or select a projector with a suitable luminous flux.

Surface

Projecting a picture

This can be a painted wall, wallpaper, tiles, canvas and other types of surfaces.

If the surface is bright, dark, or reflective, you can:

  • use a more powerful projector,
  • reduce the projection area,
  • create a modular projection by hanging photo frames on this surface.

How to choose a projector

There are several parameters to consider when choosing projectors for projection design:

  • projection ratio or throw ratio;
  • light flow;
  • the life of the projector lamp.

Throw ratio

It is the ratio of the distance from the projector to the image to the width of the image. Not to be confused with contrast, where the ratio can be 3000: 1.

Conventional projectors with a throw ratio of 1.3: 1 to 2.1: 1 need to be positioned 5.5-9 meters apart to create an image that is 4 meters wide. The room does not always allow placing the projector so far away.

A short throw projector with a 0.5: 1-0.75: 1 ratio gives such an image from a distance of 2-3 meters. The closer the projector is to the image, the less likely it is to create shadows from people or other objects passing by.

Ultra short throw projectors have a throw ratio of about 0.35: 1. They are located closest: for a width of 4 m - at a distance of 1.5 m.

Luminous flux power (ANSI lm)

For a projection design with sufficient darkness (in the evening with dim light or in the daytime with curtained windows), it is enough to have a luminous flux of 250-300 lumens per square meter. A projector with a light output of 3000 lumens can cover an area of \u200b\u200b10-12 square meters well. m.

Indoors without extraneous light, you can project at the rate of 50 lumens per square meter. Those. the same projector can cover 50-60 sq. m.

The higher the luminous flux of the projector and the smaller the projection area on the wall, the brighter the image.

Projector lamp

The brightness of the lamp gradually begins to decrease over time and by the end of its service life drops to 60-50% of the original. Then the lamp is replaced with a new one. To extend the lamp life, you can use the projector in Eco mode - 1.5 times longer.

Generally, 3000 lumens projectors have a lamp life of 3000-6000 hours, which is enough for 1-2 years with 8-hour daily use.

Some projectors with LED or Laser-LED lamp types have a lamp life of 10,000 to 20,000 hours.

Displaying an image on multiple projectors

There are three options for working with multiple projectors:

Duplication

Video signal splitters are used to dub the image to multiple projectors.

Independent images

Several projectors are connected to one computer. Each displays an independent image of the program, as if using several computers. You can project different images with different area and content settings.

Single panoramic projection

Several projectors are connected to one computer. Using a special video card, a single desktop with a panoramic resolution is created, for example, 3072x768. POGUMAX Designer will run across this wide screen of multiple projectors.

The cost of POGUMAX Designer depends on the number of projectors used, regardless of the playback mode and the number of computers used.

How do I redraw a picture?

Svyatoslav © (2006-02-15 14:30)

I write my own component, a descendant of TpaintBox, I draw on the canvas, everything is fine, only the image does not update if the form is collapsed / expanded!
How to deal with this?

MBo © (2006-02-15 16:56)

possibly messed up with overlapping the Paint method. Provide a class declaration and implementation of this method

MBo © (2006-02-15 16:59)

Sorry, did not immediately notice that the descendant of PaintBox. PaintBox itself is not redrawn, the picture does not save, you need to draw in the OnPaint handler

Svyatoslav © (2006-02-15 18:19)


\u003e you need to draw in the OnPaint handler

Tried it, bolt! Everything is much worse, in OnPaint you can only draw, the old drawing does not save if it was drawn in OnPaint, but if the drawing is the result of the program's work? You need to draw either on two canvases or save the BitMap when the focus is out of the picture.
Maybe you should change the ancestor?

MBo © (2006-02-15 19:03)

\u003e in OnPaint only you can draw
So for this PaintBox is intended - a lightweight component without saving the picture, just a place allocated for drawing.
TImage saves the image

zep (2006-02-16 00:11)

try to take the ancestor of the kastum panel and in Ppotected redefine the Paint procedure like this
procedure Pain; override;
and then in the program draw what you want in it
procedure My_comp.Paint;
begin
end;

if it blinks strongly, draw first on the canvas at TBitmap and at the end copy the components to the canvas

Svyatoslav © (2006-02-16 16:53)

Thank you all, it worked :)))
But now a new glitch, if TImage is an ancestor then picture resizing does not take effect !!! In the design, I stretched as I need, but in the wound, the value of the height and width properties remained the starting ones !!!

MBo © (2006-02-16 16:57)

Resize Picture.Bitmap

zep (2006-02-20 21:02)

change image
Image1.w: \u003d 88;
Image1.h: \u003d 77;
assign and
Image1.Picture.Bitmap.w: \u003d 88;
Image1.Picture.Bitmap.h: \u003d 77;
but you chose Image in vain, he blinks like an infection and you have nothing to do with him
i had to at least follow from PaintBox and draw in the OnPaint event on the vertual bitmap and throw Draw on the canvas.

Methods for increasing and decreasing drawings and transferring them to the plane of ceilings and walls

The alfreyschik painter has to work not only on ready-made stencils, but also to draw up stencil drawings himself, selecting them from albums, books and handicraft samples that are available in every museum of local lore. Often the selected drawings have to be enlarged or reduced. How to do this should be known to every painter.

The drawing is translated from the original onto stencil paper or cardboard through carbon paper or, better, with tracing paper. This method saves the book and makes it possible to clean up the translated drawing, which is difficult to do when using carbon paper.

It is good to copy ornaments with a lamp and glass placed on two supports. The lamp is placed below, under the glass, the drawing is placed on the glass, and paper is superimposed on top of it, on which the lines of the ornament are drawn with a pencil.

Increasing the pattern of the ornament by cells

The smallest pattern can be enlarged to any size by means of cells. They do it as follows. The drawing is easily lined with a pencil into identical cells so that a kind of mesh is obtained on it. Then, on a sheet of paper equal to the enlarged drawing, cells are also marked and molted, in the same quantity as in the drawing, but on a larger scale. For convenience, cells are numbered. A copy of the lines of the drawing is transferred to large cells.

It must be remembered that the smaller the cells in the figure were marked, the more correct the magnification will be.

The enlargement and reduction of drawings can be done using a camera and a special device - a pantograph.

Installation for increasing the pattern of the ornament

From the "Photocor" apparatus or its lens make a setting for magnification, as shown in the figure. The drawing of the ornament is placed on the floor and covered with glass on top. A magnifying device made of tin is placed on the glass, with the lens upwards.

The lamps L-1 and L-2, located in the installation, are switched on, and the light projection of the ornament pattern is aimed at a large mirror glass located above the lens. Having received a sharp image, an ornament is drawn on tracing paper, i.e.

Types of transferring images to the wall

the resulting image is transferred to paper placed on the glass. The magnification depends on how far the mirror glass is from the lens of the device.

Using a magic lantern, or epidiascope, you can also enlarge the picture. The image of the drawing is transferred to the plane of the paper or to the wall. With this method of magnification, the painter-alfreyschik must have drawing skills.

With a pantograph, the increase and decrease of patterns is easy, fast, purely mechanical and quite accurate. This device is of ancient origin, but for some reason it is very little widespread and is not available for sale. You can make a pantograph yourself.

To do this, you need to have four wooden rulers of the same length, width and thickness and evenly planed, preferably narrow and thin. At the same distance from the ends of each ruler, holes are drilled or punctured with a hot nail to fasten the rulers together. On the three rulers, holes are made at specific distances.

To enlarge the picture in With the length of the ruler, holes are made from the end (in cm1)
100 80 60 40 30
1.5 times 33,33 26,66 20,00 13,33 10,00

10 times 90,00 72,00 54,00 36,00 27,00

Pantograph

Let's say that we need to enlarge the drawing by 2 times. Let's assemble the pantograph, as shown in the figure, that is, we will fix the nests Г and О in the holes with the sign 2. Having fastened the drawing under the slot A with the buttons, put a sheet of blank paper under the slot K.

If you hold the needle A with your right hand and trace the contours of the drawing with it in turn, then the pencil K, installed in the nest, will draw exactly the same drawing on paper, but doubled in size. If the original is very large and does not fit into the device, then it is drawn in parts, which are then glued together.

If it is required to reduce the drawing, then the pencil is moved to slot A, and the needle to slot K, and the original of the drawing to be reduced is placed under it.

Drawing ceilings and walls

The basis for the painting is the completely finished painting of the surface of walls, ceilings and other structures; painting is done according to high-quality glue and oil paints, made for trimming or fluting. When starting to develop a sketch for finishing, the master must clearly imagine the whole composition in a domestic setting and clearly understand the creative intention. Only if this basic condition is met is it possible to correctly ...

Measurement of work performed

Measurement of the work performed, with the exception of specially stipulated cases, is carried out according to the area of \u200b\u200bthe actually processed surface, taking into account its relief and minus the untreated places. To determine the actually treated surfaces during painting work, use the conversion factors given in the tables. A. Wooden window devices (measurement is made according to the area of \u200b\u200bopenings along the outer contour of the boxes) Name of devices Coefficient at ...

Geometric constructions

We have already said that in order to perform some types of painting work, you need to be able to draw. And the ability to draw, in turn, presupposes knowledge of the rules for constructing geometric shapes. Sketches on paper are drawn using triangles, rails, transporters and compasses, and on the plane of walls and ceilings, constructions are made using a weight, a ruler, a wooden compass and a cord. In this case, it is necessary ...

Right angle

A right angle, i.e. equal to 90 °, is formed by two mutually perpendicular lines. The perpendicular is constructed as follows. Lower the perpendicular. From a given point C (lying outside the straight line), as from the center, we describe an arc with an arbitrary radius so that it intersects this straight line at two points D and E from these points, as from centers, we describe arcs with the same radii so that they ...

Constructing an angle equal to a given angle and parallel lines

Construction of an angle equal to a given Angle equal to a given one is constructed as follows. From the vertex A of a given angle with an arbitrary radius we draw an arc with the same radius from point D on a given straight line we describe the arc EF; the value of the arc BC is postponed along the arc EF to point F and draw DE. The angle EDF is the desired one. Constructing an angle equal to the given one Parallel lines Lines, ...
