Patent Images

1. A machine-implemented method, comprising:

  • accessing a depth image that includes a depth value for each of a plurality of locations in the depth image, each of the locations has one or more neighbor locations;

    determining potential depth values for each of the plurality of locations based on the depth value in the depth image for the location and potential aliasing in the depth image;

    determining a cost function based on differences between the potential depth values of each location and its one or more neighbor locations, determining the cost function includes assigning a higher cost for greater differences in potential depth values between a pair of neighbor locations; and

    substantially minimizing the cost function to select one of the potential depth values for each of the locations.
