Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for estimating blur in an image obtain an image, identify pixels in the image that have intensity values that equal or exceed a first intensity threshold in a first color channel, and identify a trajectory based on the pixels in the image that have intensity values that exceed the first intensity threshold in the first color channel. Also, the devices, systems, and methods identify multiple instances of the trajectory in the image, identify an instance of the trajectory that includes pixels that have intensity values that do not equal or exceed a second intensity threshold in a second color channel, and generate a blur kernel based on the intensity values in the second color channel of the pixels in the instance of the trajectory.
