Abstract

Video foreground and background detection is performed on a received video sequence on a macroblock by macroblock basis using motion vector encoding information associated with each macroblock. Some of the macroblocks in each frame, for example, edge or corner macroblocks, may be exempt from the foreground and background detection. The detection information, along with the video data, is passed to an image stabilization algorithm that prepares the video for subsequent video compression.
