Abstract
The invention relates to a method of generating a synthesized image representing a view of a scene from a first input image representing the view and a second input image representing the view, the synthesized image comprising synthesized image positions, by assigning a synthesized image data value to a synthesized image position. The method comprises determining whether input images have at the synthesized image position data values associated with them. If either one has a data value associated, that data value is assigned to the synthesized image position. If both, an average of both values is assigned. The average is a weighed average, with weighing factors being a function of a distance or distances to a closest image position with no image data value or valid image data value assigned.
