Image capture system with motion compensation

An example image system (210) may include a lens (220) that produces an image, an image sensor (230), an image stabilizer, and a controller (310). This image sensor (230) has a first edge and an opposite second edge. The first edge is placed closer to lens (210) such that it focuses on more distant...

Summary:An example image system (210) may include a lens (220) that produces an image, an image sensor (230), an image stabilizer, and a controller (310). This image sensor (230) has a first edge and an opposite second edge. The first edge is placed closer to lens (210) such that it focuses on more distant objects. The image stabilizer provides a time-varying compensation of image motion at the image sensor. The controller (310) operates the image capture system (210) in a repeating cycle where the sensor (230) exposes and reads out an image progressively from one edge to the opposite edge. The controller (310) operates the image stabilizer to provide an image motion compensation that varies in time such that the image motion compensation is greater when exposing and reading the second edge of the sensor (230) than when exposing and reading the first edge of the sensor (230).
