A method for reconstructing a downsampled depth map includes receiving, at an electronic device, image data to be presented on a display of the electronic device at a first resolution, wherein the image data includes a color image and the downsampled depth map associated with the color image. The method further includes generating a high resolution depth map by calculating, for each point making up the first resolution, a depth value based on a normalized pose difference across a neighborhood of points for the point, a normalized color texture difference across the neighborhood of points for the point, and a normalized spatial difference across the neighborhood of points. Still further, the method includes outputting, on the display, a reprojected image at the first resolution based on the color image and the high resolution depth map. The downsampled depth map is at a resolution less than the first resolution.
