Method and Apparatus for Motion Detection in Auto-Focus Applications |
摘要 |
A method (300) and image capture device (100) are provided for determining whether an image incident upon an image sensor (101) is sufficiently stable prior to executing an auto-focus process. An image stability mechanism (104) compares attribute data-such as luminance or frequency spectrum-from successive images to determine whether a change between the attribute data from image to image is within a predetermined range (710). The image stability mechanism (104) can also be configured to determine whether a scene incident upon the image sensor (101) has changed. Where the image is sufficiently stable, an indicator module (107) provides an image stability indication to a control circuit (102). The control circuit (102) can then be configured to execute the auto-focus operation when the image is sufficiently stable, or when both the scene has changed and the image is sufficiently stable.
