Disclosed are a system, apparatus, and method for depth and color camera image synchronization. Depth and color camera input images are received or otherwise obtained unsynchronized and without associated creation timestamps. An image of one type is compared with an image of a different type to determine a match for synchronization. Matches may be determined according to edge detection or depth coordinate detection. When a match is determined a synchronized pair is formed for processing within an augmented reality output. Optionally the synchronized pair may be transformed to improve the match between the image pair.
