Shader for graphical objects

Abstract:

A device includes a non-transitory memory and one or more processors coupled with the non-transitory memory. The device performs a method that includes detecting, in a set of one or more images, appearance features that define an appearance of an object represented in the set of one or more images. The appearance includes one or more shading effects associated with the object. The method includes generating a feature map for the object that encodes the detected appearance features of the object. The method includes displaying, based on the feature map, a computer-generated graphical object with one or more simulated shading effects that are within a degree of similarity to the one or more shading effects associated with the object.
