System for performing image motion compensation

A system for performing image motion compensation, the system comprising:

• a light source configured to provide multiplexed illumination to an object in a plurality of color channels, wherein the multiplexed illumination is provided such that at least one of the plurality of color channels is used at a time;
• an imaging unit configured to capture a first image and a second image of the object in the plurality of color channels, wherein the first image is captured at a first point of time during which the multiplexed illumination is provided in at least a first color channel, and the second image is captured at a second point of time during which the multiplexed illumination is provided in at least the first color channel;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• determine an estimated motion of pixels between the first image and the second image in the first color channel;
• and
• generate a first motion compensated image by extrapolating the estimated motion of pixels between the first image and the second image to at least another one of the plurality of color channels.
