Abstract

A method for determining an apparent color value of pixels corresponding to a subpart of an object in the acquired image, including: estimating a geometric distortion model of the object in the acquired image compared with a reference model of the object; determining a position in the acquired image of the subpart and determining a zone of the acquired image, referred to as the reference zone, situated in a predetermined vicinity of the subpart, each pixel of the reference zone resulting from a projection in the acquired image of a zone of the reference model, referred to as a blank zone, the blank zone being associated with a predetermined color value in the reference model, the projection using the geometric distortion model; and determining an apparent color value of the pixels of the subpart, from a color value of at least one pixel of the reference zone.
