A method for setting up a projector (10) for a passenger cabin (4) of an aeroplane (2), wherein the passenger cabin (4) comprises a projection surface (14) with a known configuration (G) and the projector (10) in the passenger cabin (4) is in a known relative position (RP) with respect to the projection surface (14) in a mounting position (M), geometrical data (16) relating to the configuration (G) and relative position (RP) are received by the projector (10), and predistortion data (22) are determined from the geometrical data (16) according to an imaging rule (18) in order to predistort the images (12) and represent them as rectified images (12″) on the projection surface, and the projector (10) is set up by storing the predistortion data (22) in the projector (10).
A projector (10) contains an imaging rule (18) and an input (20) for geometrical data (16), and is configured to carry out the method according to the invention and, during operation when set up, to predistort images (12) with the aid of the predistortion data (22) and to project them.
A passenger cabin (4) having at least one projector (10) and at least one projection surface (14) has at least one of the projectors (10) according to the invention.
