The signal processing device processes a signal which is output from a blurring detection sensor in progress of exposure of an imaging element. The signal processing device includes a processor. The processor is configured to perform processing of generating a second signal obtained by performing high-pass filter processing on a first signal which is output from the blurring detection sensor; and processing of calculating an amount of blurring on the basis of the first signal or the second signal.
Depth-based image stabilization
Depth information can be used to assist with image processing functionality, such as image stabilization and blur reduction. In at least some embodiments, depth information obtained from stereo imaging or distance sensing, for example, can be used to determine a foreground object and background object(s) for an image or frame of video. The foreground object then can be located in later frames of video or subsequent images. Small offsets of the foreground object can be determined, and the offset accounted for by adjusting the subsequent frames or images. Such an approach provides image stabilization for at least a foreground object, while providing simplified processing and reduce power consumption. Similarly processes can be used to reduce blur for an identified foreground object in a series of images, where the blur of the identified object is analyzed.
Method and apparatus for implementing a digital graduated filter for an imaging apparatus
A digital graduated filter is implemented in an imaging device by combining multiple images of the subject wherein the combining may include combining different numbers of images for highlights and for shadows of the subject. The imaging device may present a user with a set of pre-defined graduated filter configurations to choose from. A user may also specify the direction of graduation and strength of graduation in a viewfinder. In an alternative implementation, combining may include scaling of pixels being added instead of varying the number of images being combined. In an alternative implementation, the combining of multiple images may include combining a different number of images for highlights of the subject than for shadows of subject.
Image adjustment system, image adjustment device, and image adjustment method
In an image adjustment system, an image display device displays a captured image that is adjusted by an image adjustment device. The image adjustment device includes an image processor and an image generator. The image generator generates a spherical surface image. The image processor acquires the spherical surface image from the image generator to display the spherical surface image on the image display device on the basis of instruction information output from a controller. The image generator adjusts the captured image in accordance with a rotation of the spherical surface image, corrects camera shake in the captured image adjusted, and determines that a travel direction of a camera is changed when the captured image that is camera-shake corrected is changed by a predetermined angle or greater.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR STABILIZING VIDEOS USING OPTICAL FLOW DERIVED MOTION AND MOTION SOLVE DERIVED MOTION
An image capture device may capture a video while experiencing motion. Motion of the image capture device during video capture may be determined based on optical flow and structure from motion solve of the video. Optical flow derived motion and/or the motion solve derived motion of the image capture device may be selected to perform stabilization of the video.
Systems and methods for stabilizing videos
Positions of an image capture device during capture of a video may be transferred to a computing device before the video is transferred to the computing device. The positions of the image capture device may be used to determine a viewing window for the video before the video is obtained. The viewing window may be used to present a stabilized view of the video when the video is obtained. For example, a stabilized view of the video may be presented as the video is streamed to the computing device.
