Abstract

See full text

Systems, methods, and computer program products for processing coverings such as leather hides and fabrics are provided. A system for processing coverings can include a conveyor having a surface on which a covering can be placed and being rotatable to move the covering in at least one direction. An imaging device can be configured to obtain an image of the covering on the surface of the conveyor. A projector can be configured to project an image onto the surface and the covering. The covering and the projected image can have a positional relationship to one another. A controller can be in communication with the imaging device and projector. The controller can be configured to project and move the projected image of the projector with the covering to maintain a positional relationship of the projected corrected image to the covering upon rotation of the conveyor. Methods are also provided for orienting an image projected onto work surface with a covering on the work surface to align the image and covering.
