1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a processing system including a processor, sensor data comprising an image of a projection environment;
identifying automatically, by the processing system, a plurality of physical objects of the projection environment portrayed within the image;
evaluating, by the processing system, the plurality of physical objects to obtain an evaluation of the physical objects, wherein the evaluating the plurality of physical objects of the plurality of physical objects comprises identifying, by the processing system, a plurality of motion indicators for the plurality of physical objects, the evaluation comprising the plurality of motion indicators;
selecting, by the processing system, a first target object of the plurality of physical objects according to the evaluation of the physical objects, a first projection surface comprising a surface of the first target object, wherein the selecting the first target object is according to the plurality of motion indicators;
adjusting, by the processing system, a source image according to the first projection surface to obtain a first adjusted source image; and
providing, by the processing system, the first adjusted source image to a projection system adapted to project the first adjusted source image onto the first projection surface.
