Claim One:
1. One or more processor-accessible tangible media comprising processor-executable instructions for image view synthesis, wherein the processor-executable instructions, when executed, direct a device to perform acts comprising: registering an image to at least one reference model; selecting a source block of visual data from the image with regard to a destination block of the reference model based on a depth criterion and a color criterion, the depth criterion relating a source depth associated with the source block and a destination depth associated with the destination block, the color criterion relating a source color of the visual data of the source block and a destination color of a texture of the destination block; wherein a destination position of the destination block of the reference model is not visible in the image; applying the source block of visual data from the image to the destination block of the reference model to produce an image-augmented model; and synthesizing a novel image view using the image-augmented model.
