1. A method for deblurring images of a scene that includes a moving object, the method comprising, obtaining a blurred primary image I of the scene that includes the moving object;

  • obtaining a point spread function S that models the movement of the moving object;

    obtaining a background image B of the scene;

    obtaining a shape of the moving object;

    computing a mask M from the shape of the moving object and the point spread function;

    applying the mask to the background image B to isolate a static background component not associated with the moving object;

    isolating a moving object component of the primary image I;

    deblurring the moving object component by image deconvolution with the point spread function; and

    superimposing the deblurred moving object component and a background component to obtain a deblurred primary image of the scene.
