Abstract
An image processing apparatus and method is disclosed that is applied for image stabilization. The method comprises the following steps of: At least two images are captured by the image capture module. A sharpest image and a sharper image are selected from the at least two images. At least a motion vector is generated between the sharpest image and the sharper image. The sharpest image is combined with the sharper image based on the motion vector and a combination ratio so as to generate a combined image.
Claims22
An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- an image capture module for capturing at least two images;
- an image selection module for selecting a sharpest image and a sharper image from the at least two images;
- a motion vector generating module for generating at least a first motion vector between the sharpest image and the sharper image;
- and
- an image combination module for combining the sharpest image with the sharper image based on said at least a first motion vector and a combination ratio.
A method for image processing applying in an image processing apparatus, comprising the following steps of:
- (a) capturing at least two images;
- (b) selecting a sharpest image and a sharper image from the at least two images;
- (c) generating at least a first motion vector between the sharpest image and the sharper image;
- and
- (d) combining the sharpest image with the sharper image based on said at least a first motion vector and a combination ratio.
