I think, assuming I can parse a high res image fast enough, it should be fine. So long as it's only skewed in one direction, software compensation is pretty straight forward. |

It will be very shallow at a steep angle. |

Depth perception? Did you mean depth of field? I think the mars lightgun doesn`t even need a very sharp image, as you only want to find the midpoint of the reflection off the screen. Much like you can be very precise with your thumb on a smartphone screen, even if its 10x bigger then the button you are clicking. |

If the camera is mounted above the screen it will make the height of the screen look much smaller than it actually is so I wonder how well it would be able to determine where the laser is on the screen. |
