Abstract

An imagery processing system determines pixel color values for pixels of captured imagery from volumetric data, providing alternative pixel color values. A main imagery capture device, such as a camera, captures main imagery such as still images and/or video sequences, of a live action scene. Alternative devices capture imagery of the live action scene, in some spectra and form, and capture information related to pixel color values for multiple depths of a scene, which can be processed to provide reconstruction of an image including replacing a designated region in the image.
