Patent Images

1. A method of removing motion blur effects of a digital image that is subject to motion correction, wherein the method comprises:

  • extracting motion information from a sequence of a plurality of images captured immediately before a capture of the digital image;

    extracting timing information of a start time and an end time of the capture of the digital image;

    generating an estimated motion information for the sequence of images by performing an image to image analysis based on a motion estimation technique using the extracted motion information, wherein the estimated motion information comprises an individual motion vector for each pixel of the image;

    extrapolating motion information of the digital image in a time interval between the start time and the end time of the capture of the digital image using the estimated motion information and the extracted timing information of the start time and the end time of the capture of the digital image; and

    removing motion blur effects of the digital image by compensating motion of the digital image using the extrapolated motion information.
