1. A method of processing a digital image to produce an improved digital image, comprising:
- (a) receiving the digital image captured with a camera;
(b) determining a first vanishing point associated with the digital image;
(c) determining a second vanishing point associated with the digital image corresponding to a direction orthogonal the first vanishing point;
(d) determining a transform for modifying the digital image based on the first vanishing point and the second vanishing point; and
(e) applying the transform to the digital image to produce an improved digital image.

Abstract
A method of processing a digital image to produce an improved digital image, includes receiving the digital image captured with a camera; determining a first vanishing point associated with the digital image; determining a second vanishing point associated with the digital image corresponding to a direction orthogonal the first vanishing point; determining a transform for modifying the digital image based on the first vanishing point and the second vanishing point; and applying the transform to the digital image to produce an improved digital image.

6. A method of processing an image to produce an improved digital image, comprising:
-
(a) receiving a digital image captured with a camera;
(b) determining a vanishing point associated with the digital image, wherein the vanishing point relates to the direction of gravity relative to the orientation of the camera; and
(c) using the vanishing point to determine a horizon in the image. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
