Abstract

With the widespread use of handheld devices and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that has the ability to record video sequences. Digital video stabilization becomes more important as these sequences are usually shaky undermining the visual quality of the video. Digital video stabilization has been studied for decades yielding an extensive amount of literature in the field. However, most of them are highly sequential. In this paper, we present a new parallel technique that exploits the parallel architecture found in modern day devices. The algorithm divides the frame into blocks and estimates a camera path for each block to better enhance the estimation of the transformation needed to adjust for the shakiness of the video.
