Abstract
Techniques for providing an accurate auto-crop feature for images captured by an image capture device may be described herein. For example, one or more image masks for a color image captured by an image capture device may be received by a computer system. Metadata about the color image that identifies portions of the image as foreground and the color image itself may also be received by the computer system. Further, a representation of a user and a floor region associated with a user may be extracted from the color image using the one or more image masks and the metadata. A first area of the color image may be cropped with respect to the extracted representation of the user and the floor region associated with the user to generate a second area of the color image. In embodiments, a third area of the color image may be obscured based on the received metadata.
