I am trying to get the image in the bootstrap carousel to show full screen but haven't been able to figure it out, I've been working on this for awhile and am totally stuck. Right now I have just one image, but I will add more once it works...

To make it full-width we don't use any Bootstrap “container” or “row”, just the carousel which I have placed inside a “div” tag (class “top-content”) with a 100% width. The images I've used are 1920 pixels wide so they should cover pretty much every type of device.
Original answer (Bootstrap 3) Make sure the img inside the carousel item is set to height and width 100%. You also have to make sure the carousel and any of the . item containers (html,body) are 100%...
Add this class to your image tag inside carousel-inner div. Show activity on this post. It may be because of the media queries of the bootstrap class trying to set the max-width to a smaller size. You can apply a custom class to the carousel and override the max-width to fit the screen.
Update Bootstrap 4
Bootstrap 4 has utility classes that make it easier to create a full screen carousel. For example, use the min-vh-100
class on the carousel-item
content...
<div class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<div class="carousel-inner bg-info" role="listbox">
<div class="carousel-item active">
<div class="d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center min-vh-100">
<h1 class="display-1">ONE</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Full screen carousel demo
This works to make the carousel items full screen, but carousel items that contain images or videos that have a specific size & aspect ratio require further consideration.
Since the viewport h/w ratio is likely to be different than the image or video h/w ratio, usually background images or object-fit
are commonly used to size images and videos to "full screen". For videos, use the Bootstrap responsive embed classes as needed for the video ratio (21:9, 19:9, etc...).

Original answer (Bootstrap 3)
Make sure the img inside the carousel item is set to height and width 100%. You also have to make sure the carousel and any of the .item containers (html,body) are 100%...
html,body{height:100%;}
.carousel,.item,.active{height:100%;}
.carousel-inner{height:100%;}
Boostrap 3 Full Screen Carousel Demo
Here's an example for Bootstrap 3.x: http://www.codeply.com/go/2tVXo3mAtV
This is how I did it. This makes the images in the slideshow take up the full screen if it´s aspect ratio allows it, othervice it scales down.
.carousel {
height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
overflow:hidden;
}
.carousel .carousel-inner {
height:100%;
}
To allways get a full screen slideshow, no matter screen aspect ratio, you can also use object-fit: (doesn´t work in IE or Edge)
.carousel .carousel-inner img {
display:block;
object-fit: cover;
}
I found an answer on the startbootstrap.com. Try this code:
CSS
html,
body {
height: 100%;
}
.carousel,
.item,
.active {
height: 100%;
}
.carousel-inner {
height: 100%;
}
/* Background images are set within the HTML using inline CSS, not here */
.fill {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-position: center;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
}
footer {
margin: 50px 0;
}
HTML
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="item active">
<!-- Set the first background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide One');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 1</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<!-- Set the second background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide Two');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 2</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<!-- Set the third background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide Three');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 3</h2>
</div>
</div>
</div>

You can do it without forcing html
and body
to me 100% height. Use view port height instead. And with mouse wheel control too.
function debounce(func, wait, immediate) {
var timeout;
return function() {
var context = this,
args = arguments;
var later = function() {
timeout = null;
if (!immediate) func.apply(context, args);
};
var callNow = immediate && !timeout;
clearTimeout(timeout);
timeout = setTimeout(later, wait);
if (callNow) func.apply(context, args);
};
}
var slider = document.getElementById("demo");
var onScroll = debounce(function(direction) {
//console.log(direction);
if (direction == false) {
$('.carousel-control-next').click();
} else {
$('.carousel-control-prev').click();
}
}, 100, true);
slider.addEventListener("wheel", function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var delta;
if (event.wheelDelta) {
delta = event.wheelDelta;
} else {
delta = -1 * event.deltaY;
}
onScroll(delta >= 0);
});
.carousel-item {
height: 100vh;
background: #212121;
}
.carousel-control-next,
.carousel-control-prev {
width: 8% !important;
}
.carousel-item.active,
.carousel-item-left,
.carousel-item-right {
display: flex !important;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.carousel-item h1 {
color: #fff;
font-size: 72px;
padding: 0 10%;
}

I'm had the same problem, and I tried with the answers above, but I wanted something more thin, then I tried to change one by one opsions, and discover that we just need to add
.carousel {
height: 100%;
}
