1. A method for performing segmentation in an image capture device, the method comprising:
determining one or more segments present in a first image;
determining one or more segments present in a second image acquired at a first time;
determining a disparity of one of the one or more segments in the first image by selecting a disparity value from a plurality of disparity values determined only for the first image, the selected disparity value associated with a greatest overlap between pixels in the one of the one or more segments present in the first image and pixels in a segment in the second image corresponding to the one of the one or more segments present in the first image;
assigning the determined disparity to every pixel in the one of the one or more segments in the first image; and
assigning the determined disparity to every pixel in the segment in the second image corresponding to the one of the one or more segments in the first image, wherein the determined disparity differs from a disparity initially estimated for at least one pixel in the segment in the second image corresponding to the one of the one or more segments in the first image.
