The method combines the octree spatial subdivision concept with LDI concept, using the implicit geometry stored in depth pixels. The algorithm uses an octree to group depth pixels in a hierarchical way. The proposed algorithm is very effective when used in highly occluded scenes, and the density of the depth pixels should be high enough to get a high performance from the algorithm
