We propose a novel distributed multiple projector-camera system for projecting contents onto a plane surface such as a wall in various environments. The proposed system is composed of mobile Projector-Camera Terminals (PCTs) held by individual users. In each PCT, an agent installed on it controls its projection while cooperating with the agents of other neighboring PCTs. Through the cooperation of the agents, contents are shared among them, and each content is projected separately from a suitable PCT in the appropriate position to project it onto a projection surface. By sharing contents projection among suitable PCTs, this system covers a necessary area on the projection surface, improves the resolution of contents projected onto the surface, and reduces shadows on the projected contents, even if the PCTs move, some of them withdraw, or new ones join in.
