Abstract
An image such as a depth image of a scene may be received, observed, or captured by a device. The image may then be processed. For example, the image may be downsampled, a shadow, noise, and/or a missing potion in the image may be determined, pixels in the image that may be outside a range defined by a capture device associated with the image may be determined, a portion of the image associated with a floor may be detected. Additionally, a target in the image may be determined and scanned. A refined image may then be rendered based on the processed image. The refined image may then be processed to, for example, track a user.

10. A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer executable instructions for processing an image, the computer executable instructions comprising instructions for:
-
receiving an image, wherein the image comprises a plurality of pixels; processing the image, wherein processing the image comprises at least one of the following downsampling the image, determining whether the image includes one of the following a shadow, noise, and a missing portion, determining whether the image includes a target, and scanning the target if, based on the determination, the image includes the target; and rendering a refined image based on the processed depth image. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A system for processing an image of a scene, the system comprising:
-
a capture device, wherein the capture device comprises a camera component that receives a depth image of the scene, wherein the depth image comprises pixels; and a processor in operative communication with the capture device, wherein the processor downsamples the image;
determines whether the image includes one of the following a shadow, noise, and a missing portion;
detects whether one or more of the pixels in the image are outside a range defined by the capture device;
detects a portion of the image associated with a planar surface in the scene;
determines whether the image includes a target;
scans the target, if based on the determination, the depth image includes the target; and
segments the target from the image.
