Binocular Camera Image Deblurring via Motion Compensation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Captured images may become blurry due to user tremors or external movements when using binocular cameras in electronic devices, leading to poor imaging results.
Innovation Solution
An image processing method that captures two images with a binocular camera, calculates the motion direction of each image, performs deblurring based on the calculated motion directions, and combines the deblurred images to produce a clearer three-dimensional perspective image.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If binocular camera captures images, then three-dimensional perspective image is obtained, but image becomes blurry due to user tremors or external movements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent calculates motion directions and performs deblurring operations on individual images before combining them. By preparing deblurred images in advance through motion compensation, the system maintains three-dimensional imaging capability while improving final image sharpness
Solution Approach 2:
The patent processes each binocular image separately by calculating its specific motion direction and performing deblurring independently, then combines the results. This segmentation approach allows motion compensation for each image while preserving the three-dimensional perspective information
2Manufacturing precision
If deblurring is performed based on motion direction, then image sharpness is improved, but processing time and computational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs motion direction calculation and deblurring operations as preliminary processing steps before image combination. By completing these computationally intensive operations in advance on individual images, the system optimizes the overall processing workflow and reduces total time
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies deblurring processing selectively based on calculated motion directions, focusing computational resources on regions with motion blur rather than processing entire images uniformly. This localized approach reduces overall processing time while maintaining image sharpness where needed

AI summary
It is provided according to the present application an image processing method applied to an electronic device equipped with a binocular camera. The image processing method includes: calculating a motion direction of a first image and a motion direction of a second image, wherein the first image and second image are captured by two cameras of the binocular camera respectively; performing deblurring on the first image and the second image; and combining the images which are already deblurred to obtain a definite three-dimensional perspective image. According to the image processing method, a blurry image generated during imaging is deblurred, the blurring caused by movement or the like may be weakened, the definition of the deblurred image is better than the definition of the blurred image, thereby leading to a better imaging result.
