Hardware assisted image deblurring

A computer-readable storage device having instructions stored thereon that when executed by a computing device cause the computing device to perform acts, the acts comprising:

• obtaining a photo captured by an image sensor of a camera, rotational motion information, and linear motion information associated with photo capture, and wherein the rotational motion information and the linear motion information relate to a location on the camera other than the image sensor;
• calculating camera motion during the photo capture from the rotational motion information and the linear motion information relative to the location;
• interpolating motion of the image sensor during the photo capture from the rotational motion information and the linear motion information associated with the location;
• and,
• deblurring portions of the photo utilizing the interpolated motion of the image sensor.

A method comprising:

• obtaining a blurred image captured by pixels of an image sensor of a camera, the camera comprising one or more motion sensors;
• recovering camera motion of the camera while capturing the blurred image using motion information provided by the one or more motion sensors;
• inferring blur in the blurred image, the blur being induced by the camera motion while capturing the blurred image;
• and
• reducing the blur in the blurred image to obtain a sharp image, the blur being reduced relative to individual pixels based upon a relative orientation of the individual pixels relative to the one or more motion sensors.
