Survey on Digital Video Stabilization: Concepts, Methods, and Challenges
Marcos Roberto e Souza, Helena de Almeida Maia, Hélio Pedrini
Abstract
Digital video stabilization is a challenging task that aims to transform a potentially shaky video into a pleasant one by smoothing the camera trajectory. Despite the various works found in the literature addressing this task, their organization and analysis have not yet received much attention. In this work, we present a thorough review of the literature for video stabilization, organized according to a proposed taxonomy. A formal definition for the problem is introduced, along with a brief interpretation in physical terms. We also provide a comprehensive discussion on the main challenges and future trends for this active area.
