Abstract
An exemplary virtual reality system determines a first confidence metric representing an objective degree to which a pre-modeled object is recognized within a first captured image depicting a scene from a first vantage point. The virtual reality system also determines a second confidence metric representing an objective degree to which the pre-modeled object is recognized within a second captured image depicting the scene from a second vantage point distinct from the first vantage point. The virtual reality system then generates a rendered image that includes a depiction of the pre-modeled object from a third vantage point distinct from the first and second vantage points. The depiction of the pre-modeled object is generated based on data from the first and second captured images, the data prioritized for the depiction of the pre-modeled object according to relative magnitudes of the first and second confidence metrics. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
