Abstract

An apparatus for rendering a visual scene includes: a content visualization stage configured: to obtain as a first input a set of images of one or more objects, and to obtain as a second input a geometry representation of the one or more objects in a 3D-space; to obtain a final image representing the visual scene from a perspective of a target position, the visual scene including the one or more objects; to consider at least one of a lighting effect and/or an object interaction effect between the one or more objects and one or more further objects contained in the visual scene; the content visualization stage is configured to obtain a target view image from the set of images irrespective of the geometry representation. The apparatus is configured to map the target view image on the geometry representation under consideration of the target position.
