A New Image-stabilizing Method by Transferring Electric Charges

Description

This item was taken from the IEEE Conference ' A New Image-stabilizing Method by Transferring Electric Charges ' We have developed a new image stabilization method that utilizes electric charge transfer in the vertical transfer register of a CCD image sensor. This method repeats a series of actions including one or more continuous exposures according to the degree of camera shake, transferring and adding electric charges in the vertical transfer register to correct image blurs. Since this technique does not require mechanical components, external memory or digital image processing circuits, it allows cameras to be miniaturized and costs reduced.
