First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for object-of-interest image de-blurring, comprising:
- determining an object region of an object-of-interest in a first image;
determining a motion vector of the object-of-interest from the first image and a second image;
determining a scaling factor as a ratio of the exposure time (ET) of the first image to the frame interval (FI) between the first and second images; and
generating a de-blurred object region by processing the object region using a deconvolution filter formulated from the motion vector and the scaling factor.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for object-of-interest image de-blurring includes functions that determine (305, 310) an object region of an object-of-interest in an image that may be generated by image capture device (805), that determine (315, 825) a motion vector of the object-of-interest, that determine (325, 830) a scaling factor, and that generate (330) a de-blurred object region by processing the object region using a deconvolution filter (835) formulated from the motion vector and the scaling factor.
