Abstract
A method for video stabilisation having the following steps: a) providing a surgical microscope, comprising an image sensor, and a movement detection device which detects a movement of the image sensor and generates corresponding sensor movement data; b) detecting an object field and generating video data of the object field by means of the image sensor and generating image movement data by evaluating the video data; and c) correcting the video data, comprising c1) calculating displacement vector data which only or predominantly indicate a movement of the image sensor but do not or only subordinately indicate a movement within the object field, using the combined use of the sensor movement data, wherein the image movement data which indicate changes in movement of the object field are weighted and/or filtered on the basis of the sensor movement data, and c2) correcting the video data by means of the displacement vector data.
