Suppose that we’re going to place a pic or video on this black and empty monitor. We should make some marker on each corner.

And make click them to make Blender recognize them as markers to be tracked

Once Blender knows all the markers, it will start tracking them. The red and green lines shown on top shows the tracking process

To enable Blender to precisely map the pic to the surface, we have to define the corners and edges

Then we should set some things up

Doing some adjustments
