Patent ID: 7542034

Claim:
A method for processing a video sequence, comprising: defining graphical data associated with an object in multiple frames of said video sequence; associating a three dimensional model with said object; defining transforms experienced by said object between said multiple frames; generating texture map data for a first frame of said multiple frames, wherein said generating (i) identifies a first portion of said three dimensional model visible according to a camera position associated with said first frame, (ii) includes defined graphical data associated with said first frame within texture map data for said first portion, (iii) identifies a second portion of said three dimensional model that is not visible according to a camera position associated with said first frame, (iv) processes defined graphical data associated with at least a second frame of said multiple frames according to the defined transforms experienced by said object between said first frame and said at least second frame, and (v) includes said processed graphical data within texture map data for said second portion.
