Abstract
Examples disclose a method and system for merging textures. The method may be executable to receive one or more images of an object, identify a texture value for a point in a first image of the one or more images, and determine a metric indicative of a relation between a view reference point vector and a normal vector of a position of a point on the object relative to the image capturing device. Based on the metrics, the method may be executable to determine a weighted average texture value to apply to a corresponding point of a three-dimensional mesh of the object.
