This paper proposes a design method of a dome type multi projection display "CyberDome" which presents a distortion-free, life-size, and stereoscopic images and is wide enough to cover the field of user's vision with a large hemi spherical screen. We have developed the software named "Projection Simulator" to design multi projector arrangements against a dome screen and to make multi images continuous and seamless by tuning parameters of projection model. We also have developed the algorithm to specify boundary areas of images and to make brightness correction filters. Actually we built a system with a dome screen of 8.25m diameter and 1 8 projectors, where many people can experience seamless, high-resolution stereoscopic images simultaneously, and we confirmed our design method.
