Abstract
In one embodiment, a computing system determines one or more depth measurements associated with a first physical object. The system captures an image including image data associated with the first physical object. The system identifies and associates a plurality of first pixels with a first representative depth value based on the one or more depth measurements. The system determines, for an output pixel of an output image, that (1) a portion of a virtual object is visible from a viewpoint and (2) the output pixel overlaps with a portion of the first physical object. The system determines that the portion of the first physical object is associated with the plurality of first pixels and renders the output image from the viewpoint. Occlusion at the output pixel is determined based on a comparison between the first representative depth value and a depth value associated with the portion of the virtual object.
