Abstract: A first aspect of the invention provides a method of training a neural network for capturing volumetric video, comprising: generating a 3D model of a scene; using the 3D model to generate a high fidelity depth map; capturing a perceived depth map of the scene, having a field of view that is aligned with a field of view of the high fidelity depth map; and training the neural network based on the high fidelity depth map and the perceived depth map, wherein the high fidelity depth map has a higher fidelity to the scene than the perceived depth map has.
