Claim 9:
10. A system comprising at least one server and a data repository communicably coupled to the at least one server, wherein the at least one server is configured to:
receive a plurality of visible-light images of a real-world environment captured using at least one camera and depth data captured corresponding to the plurality of visible-light images;
identify image segments of a given visible-light image that represent objects or their parts belonging to different material categories, the objects being present in the real-world environment;
detect whether at least two adjacent image segments in the given visible-light image pertain to at least two different material categories that are related to a same object category, wherein information pertaining to the at least two different material categories that are related to the same object category is accessed from the data repository; and
when it is detected that at least two adjacent image segments pertain to at least two different material categories that are related to a same object category,
identify at least two adjacent depth segments of given depth data corresponding to respective ones of the at least two adjacent image segments of the given visible-light image; and
correct errors in optical depths represented in at least one of the at least two adjacent depth segments, based on optical depths represented in remaining of the at least two adjacent depth segments.
