A Digital Image Stabilization method including selecting a Principal transform representing a stationary/background object in the scene of a video frame, based on scoring each of a plurality of transforms of tile motion vector (Tile MV) groups and of feature point motion vector (FP MV) groups, and excluding large moving objects based on the history of the stationary (background) group and the history of each of the plurality motion vector groups.

Digital image stabilization method with adaptive filtering

A method of operating a video processor is provided. The method includes receiving a first image data representing a first frame of a scene, dividing at least a central portion of the first frame into a plurality of tiles, identifying feature point candidates in the first image data, selecting a set of feature points within each specific tile based on the luminance variance &#x3c3;2 of the specific tile, receiving a second image data representing a second frame of the scene, deriving feature point motion vectors between the first and second frames corresponding to the identified feature, grouping the motion vectors into motion vector groups based on vector magnitude ratios and angular differences, and calculating the affine transform of each group of motion vectors.
