What LumaPlane is
LumaPlane is a browser-based tool for fitting projected images and videos to physical surfaces. Users create planes, attach media, shape and align them while projecting, and send the result fullscreen to a projector. Masks can block parts of the image, and multiple planes can be layered. It runs in a browser without installation or specialist hardware; a projector that appears as a display can be used by moving the browser window onto it and selecting fullscreen. The free Starter plan lasts forever, needs no card, and includes one project, unlimited planes, built-in gallery media, and fullscreen projector output. Basic costs $19 a year and allows 10 projects, unlimited planes, and uploads up to 50MB. Pro costs $49 a year and includes unlimited projects and planes, uploads, and 500MB of media storage. The free plan uses gallery media rather than user uploads. LumaPlane describes use by beginners, hobbyists, small venues, educators, and artists prototyping ideas, including in workshops, classrooms, makerspaces, and creative installations.
