Title:
IMAGE STABILIZING DEVICE OF THE MEMS TYPE, IN PARTICULAR FOR IMAGE ACQUISITION USING A DIGITAL-IMAGE SENSOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2007031569
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A device for stabilizing images acquired by a digital-image sensor (5) includes a motion- sensing device (15, 16, 17, 18), for detecting quantities (?fP, aY, ?fY) correlated to pitch and yaw movements of the digital-image sensor (5), and a processing unit (14), connectable to the digital-image sensor (5) for receiving a first image signal (IMG) and configured for extracting a second image signal (IMG') from the first image signal (IMG) on the basis of the quantities (?fP, aY, ?fY) detected by the motion-sensing device (15, 16, 17, 18). The motion-sensing device (15, 16, 17, 18) includes a first accelerometer (15) and a second accelerometer (16).
