Claims30
A digital imaging system for correcting optical image aberrations in a digital video, comprising:
- a digital video camera including in-camera software, an optical lens mechanism, at least one digital sensor for capturing the digital video, an integrated circuit including a digital signal processor configured to access a database management system including a plurality of optical image aberration corrections, and a memory storage sub-system;
- wherein the optical lens mechanism is a zoom lens or a fixed focal length lens;
- wherein the integrated circuit uses the in-camera software to identify at least one optical image aberration and to correct the at least one optical image aberration in at least one frame of the digital video using at least one of the plurality of optical image aberration corrections in the database;
- wherein the video is captured by the at least one digital sensor and is forwarded to the digital signal processor;
- wherein the video image file with the at least one optical image aberration is corrected by applying digital filtration using the digital signal processor;
- and
- wherein the corrected video consisting of the digital data optimized from the at least one optical image aberration that are corrected from the original video image is stored in the memory storage sub-system.
