GENERATING AN AUGMENTED REALITY IMAGE USING A BLENDING FACTOR

Abstract: a method for generating an augmented reality image from first and second images, wherein at least a portion of at least one of the first and the second image is captured from a real scene, identifies a confidence region in which a confident determination as to which of the first and second image to render in that region of the augmented reality image can be made, and identifies an uncertainty region in which it is uncertain as to which of the first and second image to render in that region of the augmented reality image. at least one blending factor value in the uncertainty region is determined based upon a similarity between a first colour value in the uncertainty region and a second colour value in the confidence region, and an augmented reality image is generated by combining, in the uncertainty region, the first and second images using the at least one blending factor value.
