Abstract

Systems and methods for generating an image of an automobile can include generating an artificial surface for a 3D model of the automobile, blending the artificial surface with a real world surface, and generating the image of the automobile using a blended surface. The image can have a number of different blended surfaces (e.g., a cleaner floor, shadows for the automobile, reflections for the automobile). The images can be used to create a 360 degree display of the automobile where the blended surface is displayed.
