1. A method comprising:
at a processor:
obtaining, from one or more image sensors, a sequence of images of an object;
tracking a user feature of interest of the object in the sequence of images;
after said tracking and during rendering on a view dependent device, adjusting the sequence of images such that the user feature of interest of the object is aligned on a virtual focal plane in the adjusted images during said rendering, wherein alignment of the user feature of interest results in the user feature of interest being rendered in focus on the view dependent device; and
providing the adjusted images for displaying a three-dimensional (3D) appearance of the object on the view dependent device, wherein viewing position determines which of the adjusted images is viewed in a left eye view and which of the adjusted images is viewed in a right eye view.
