Abstract

In various embodiments, methods and systems reprojecting three-dimensional (3D) virtual scenes using discontinuity depth late stage reprojection are provided. A reconstruction point, that indicates camera pose information, is accessed. The reconstruction point is associated with a plurality of sample points of a three-dimensional (3D) virtual scene. One or more closest sample points, relative to the reconstruction point, are identified, from the plurality of sample points. Each of the one or more closest sample points is associated with a cube map of color data and depth data. A relative convergence score is determined for each of the one or more closest sample points based on performing a depth-aware cube map late stage reprojection operation in relation to the reconstruction point. A subset of the one or more closest sample points is identified based on the relative convergence score. A reconstructed 3D virtual image is generated using the subset.
