Claim One:
1. A method comprising: identifying a location on a two-dimensional (2D) image of an object; identifying a location on a three-dimensional (3D) image of the object, wherein the location on the 3D image corresponds to the location on the 2D image; determining, by a processor, a color associated with the location on the 2D image by: receiving data associated with a simulation of a plurality of rays cast on the 3D image, wherein each of the plurality of rays are indicative of virtual light rays extending from a source to the location on the 3D image; identifying a color of the location on the 3D image associated with the received data, wherein the identified color is indicative of a color substantially at the location on the 3D image; identifying a confidence level associated with the identified color of the location on the 3D image, wherein the confidence level is indicative of a likelihood that the identified color associated with the received data includes the color at the location on the 3D image of the object; and based on the confidence level, associating the identified color of the location on the 3D image with the location on the 2D image.
