1. A method of creating a three dimensional model of a scene based on a two dimensional image of the scene, the method comprising:

  • identifying a plurality of surfaces in the image;

    identifying a plurality of constraints between the surfaces in the image;

    identifying a pattern on a first surface in the image;

    identifying a first constraint between the pattern and another feature of the image; and

    generating a three dimensional model of the scene based on the surfaces, the plurality of constraints, and the first constraint.
