Systems and techniques are provided for conserving resources when performing motion estimation. An example process can include determining, based on an input image and a reference image, motion vectors identifying motion between the input image and the reference image; determining whether the motion indicated by the motion vectors is below a first threshold; based on a determination that the motion indicated by the motion vectors is below the first threshold, refraining from determining a local motion between the input image and the reference image; determining a transform matrix based on the motion vectors and without using a local motion between the input image and the reference image; and adjusting the input image based on the transform matrix.

Scale image resolution for motion estimation

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for processing a plurality of captured image frames. An example method may include receiving a first image frame and a second image frame from a camera sensor. The example method may also include determining a first portion of the second image frame with a temporal difference from a corresponding first portion of the first image frame, wherein a second portion of the second image frame is without a temporal difference from a corresponding second portion of the first image frame. The example method may also include processing the second image frame, including processing the first portion of the second image frame, and preventing processing the second portion of the second image frame.
