Abstract
The present invention relates to an annotating method comprising the steps of:
- capturing (100) data representing a light field with a plenoptic image capture device (4);
- matching (101) the captured data with a corresponding reference data;
- retrieving an annotation associated with an element of said reference data (102);
- rendering (103) a view generated from said captured data and including at least one annotation.
