An improved mechanism for image area selection upon which autofocusing is directed during image capture on a digital image capture device, such as a camera or cellular phone. This image area selection provides accurate selection of moving object even when the objects being focused upon are subject to intense or unpredictable motion. The image area selection is performed based on alignment of consecutive frames (images) for which a rough foreground mask, and moving object mask have been determined. Differences between these frames are utilized to determine a moving object contour, which also provides feedback through a delay to the moving object detection step. |
