Abstract

A system for replacing physical items in images is discussed. A depicted item can be selected and removed from an image via image mask data and pixel merging techniques. Virtual light source positions can be generated based on real-world light source data from the image. A rendered simulation of a virtual item can then be integrated into the image to create a modified image for display.
