Real-Time Digital Image Stabilization Based on Contour

A new digital image stabilization method is proposed for real-time application based on image contour. The image intensities are projected to several gray levels by thresholding before extracting contour points. Matching position could be found using these contour points. All pixels are still used for refined matching near the matching position. This algorithm is more robust against changes in illumination and noise affection. The adaptive global motion judgement can remove the affection of intruding object. All those are realized on normally available PC.
