Method and system for image augmentation. A captured image of a user in a scene includes a user portion and a background portion with partial scene features cut off at the image frame borders. A first set of imaging parameters is obtained, including the position and orientation of the camera when capturing the image. A background-image is retrieved in accordance with the obtained imaging parameters, from a database that includes imagery of real-world environments. The retrieved background-image is captured at a second set of imaging parameters such that the background-image includes supplementary scene features located beyond the image frame borders of the captured image and supplementing information for the partial scene features of the background portion. An updated image is generated in which the user appears relative to a background that includes the supplementary scene features, by image fusion of the captured image with the background-image. |
