# Dome Projection

Configure Oden Dome Player and projector dome calibration.

Last validated: 2026-05-05

Use dome projection when the operator station is a projector dome rather than a flat monitor or HMD.

## Basic flow

1.  Install Oden Dome Player on the dome computer.
    
2.  Connect and arrange the projectors in the operating system.
    
3.  Configure NVIDIA Surround if the projector layout should appear as one large surface.
    
4.  Set Oden Dome Player to fullscreen.
    
5.  Connect the calibration camera.
    
6.  Run dome calibration.
    
7.  Add edge blending and border cutoff.
    
8.  Save the production project.
    

## Calibration

Dome calibration depends on projector layout, camera placement, lens coverage, and the calibration board. Allocate time for the first calibration and validate each stage before moving on.

The calibration camera can only calibrate the area it can see. If part of the dome is outside the camera/lens field of view, Oden cannot calibrate that region from the capture.

See [Stitching and Calibration](stitching-and-calibration.md) for the full dome procedure.

## Latency

Use fullscreen mode for production dome operation. Check [low-latency display settings](stream-settings.md#low-latency-display-settings) before acceptance testing.
