Process for the stabilization of the images of a scene correcting offsets in grey levels, detection of mobile objects and harmonization of two snapshot capturing apparatuses based on the stabilization of the images
First Claim
1. Process for the electronic stabilization of the images of a scene of a snapshot capturing apparatus of an imaging system in which, in a terrestrial reference frame, the images of the scene captured by the apparatus are filtered in a low-pass filter, so as to retain only the low spatial frequencies thereof, and the optical flow equation is solved to determine the rotations to be imposed on the images in order to stabilize them with regard to the previous images.

Abstract
In the stabilization process, in a terrestrial reference frame, the images of the scene captured by the apparatus are filtered in a low-pass filter, so as to retain only the low spatial frequencies thereof, and the optical flow equation is solved to determine the rotations to be imposed on the images in order to stabilize them with regard to the previous images.
In the harmonization process, in a terrestrial reference frame, the images of the scene captured at the same instants by the two apparatuses are filtered in a low-pass filter, so as to retain only the low spatial frequencies thereof, and the optical flow equation between these pairs of respective images of the two apparatuses is solved so as to determine the rotations and the variation of the relationship of the respective zoom parameters to be imposed on these images so as to harmonize them with one another.
The calculation of the offsets is deduced from the stabilization process and the deduction of mobile objects is based on a correction of offsets by image difference calculation.
