First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for deblurring an image based on motion tracking, said method comprising:
- recording light at an image sensor of an imaging device to capture an image;
recording motion of said imaging device at a motion sensor of said imaging device during said recording said light at said image sensor; and
generating a blur kernel based on said motionfurther comprising deblurring said image based on said blur kernel;
wherein said deblurring said image based on said blur kernel comprises deconvolving said image based on said blur kernel;
recording motion of said image sensor during said recording said light at said image sensor; and
determining an imperfection between said motion of said image sensor and said motion of said imaging device.

Abstract
A method and system for deblurring an image based on motion tracking. light is recorded at an image sensor of an imaging device to capture an image. motion of said image sensor is recorded at a motion sensor of the imaging device during the recording of the light at the image sensor. A blur kernel is generated based on the motion.

11. An imaging system comprising:
-
an image sensing means for recording light to capture an image; a motion sensing means for recording motion of said imaging system during said capture of said image; a memory means for storing said image and said motion; and a processing means for generating a blur kernel based on said motion wherein said processing means is also for deblurring said image based on said blur kernel; wherein said processing means is operable to deblur said image by deconvolving said image based on said blur kernel; a second motion sensing means for recording motion of said image sensing means during said capture of said image; and imperfection determination means for determining an imperfection between said motion of said imaging system and said motion of said image sensing means. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
