At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a plurality of instructions, wherein the instructions, in response to execution of the instructions by a computing apparatus, enable the computing apparatus to calculate a plurality of depth values for a plurality of corresponding pixels of an image from an image source, determine whether the depth values are greater than a threshold, and on determination that one or more depth values are greater that the threshold, output in response one or more disable indicators for use to blank out one or more pixels corresponding to the one or more depth values identified as greater than the threshold.

An apparatus, comprising:

• means for receiving an image from an image source, the image having a plurality of pixels, calculating depth values for the pixels, and outputting the depth values as a depth value map of the image;
• and
• means for receiving the depth value map, processing the depth value map to identify depth values that are greater than a threshold, and on determination that one or more depth values are greater that the threshold, outputting in response one or more disable indicators for use to blank out one or more pixels corresponding to the one or more depth values identified as greater than the threshold.
