1. A computer implemented method for processing video comprising:
- capturing a first image and a second image from a camera;
identifying a feature present in the first camera image and the second camera image;
determining a first location value of the feature within the first camera image;
determining a second location value of the feature within the second camera image;
estimating an intermediate location value of the feature based at least in part on the first location value and the second location value; and
communicating the intermediate location value and the second location value to a physics simulation.

Abstract
A computer implemented method for processing video is provided. A first image and a second image are captured by a camera. A feature present in the first camera image and the second camera image is identified. A first location value of the feature within the first camera image is identified. A second location value of the feature within the second camera image is identified. An intermediate location value of the feature based at least in part on the first location value and the second location value is determined. The intermediate location value and the second location value are communicated to a physics simulation.
