Abstract

An image processing device receives image data from an image frame captured by an image sensor of an image capture device. The image processing device moves a lens of the image capture device while still receiving the image data from the image frame, for instance as part of an autofocus operation. The image processing device determines multiple positions of the lens from the beginning of the movement to the end of the movement based on a lens position sensor, based on differences between the image frame and other consecutive image frames, or based on interpolation. The image processing device performs field of view compensation on the image data by cropping one or more rows of the image data based on the positions of the lens.
