Apparatus and method for image stabilization using image blur correction

Abstract

Provided are a method and apparatus for stabilizing an image using image blur correction, wherein blur of a frame in an image captured by a camera is corrected by dividing the image into blocks, extracting feature points, and calculating a motion vector, thereby outputting stable image.

Description

technical field [0001] In some implementations, the present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for stabilizing images based on image blur correction. Background technique [0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art. [0003] In recent years, with the development of camera imaging technology, imaging devices are increasingly used, which raises the problem of correcting image blur. Image blurring occurs from various circumstances such as image blurring due to camera shaking or the like when using a camera of a mobile terminal such as a portable digital camera, a smart phone, or the like. In the case of a CCTV installed outdoors, image blurring is generated from weather environments such as rain, wind, etc., and a vehicle-mounted black box camera suffers from image blurring generated from vibration of a vehicle during driving.
