Abstract

Systems, devices and methods for improved tracking with an electronic device are disclosed. The disclosures employ advanced exposure compensation and/or stabilization techniques. The tracking features may therefore be used in an electronic device to improve tracking performance under dramatically changing lighting conditions and/or when exposed to destabilizing influences, such as jitter. Historical data related to the lighting conditions and/or to the movement of a region of interest containing the tracked object are advantageously employed to improve the tracking system under such conditions.
