Frame processing and/or capture instruction systems and techniques

A method of processing one or more frames, the method comprising:

• obtaining a motion map for the one or more frames, wherein the motion map includes-a plurality of pixels and, for each pixel, a value indicating a respective amount of motion for the respective pixel and a respective confidence value associated with the respective amount of motion for the respective pixel;
• determining, based on the motion map, motion associated with the one or more frames of a scene, the motion corresponding to movement of one or more objects in the scene;
• determining, based on one or more sensor measurements, global motion associated with a camera used to capture the one or more frames;
• determining a weighted combination of the determined motion and the global motion using a first weight for the determined motion and a second weight for the global motion, the first weight representing a sensitivity of frame processing to movement of the one or more objects in the scene;
• determining, based on the weighted combination of the determined motion and the global motion, an amount of motion in the one or more frames is less than a motion threshold;
• determining a number of frames and an exposure duration for capturing the number of frames, wherein the determined number of frames is less than a previously-captured number of frames used to generate a first frame for display and the determined exposure duration is greater than an exposure duration used to capture the previously-captured number of frames based on the amount of motion in the one or more frames being less than the motion threshold;
• sending a request to capture the number of frames using the determined exposure duration;
• and
• displaying a second frame based on the number of frames captured using the determined exposure duration.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• obtain a motion map for one or more frames, wherein the motion map includes-a plurality of pixels and, for each pixel, a value indicating a respective amount of motion for the respective pixel and a respective confidence value associated with the respective amount of motion for the respective pixel;
• determine, based on the motion map, motion associated with the one or more frames of a scene, the motion corresponding to movement of one or more objects in the scene;
• determine, based on one or more sensor measurements, global motion associated with a camera used to capture the one or more frames;
• determine a weighted combination of the determined motion and the global motion using a first weight for the determined motion and a second weight for the global motion, the first weight representing a sensitivity of frame processing to movement of the one or more objects in the scene;
• determine, based on the weighted combination of the determined motion and the global motion, an amount of motion in the one or more frames is less than a motion threshold;
• determine a number of frames and an exposure duration for capturing the number of frames, wherein the determined number of frames is less than a previously-captured number of frames used to generate a first frame for display and the determined exposure duration is greater than an exposure duration used to capture the previously-captured number of frames based on the amount of motion in the one or more frames being less than the motion threshold;
• send a request to capture the number of frames using the determined exposure duration;
• and
• output a second frame for display based on the number of frames captured using the determined exposure duration.
