Abstract
The disclosure describes systems and methods for stabilizing an imaging device with an image stabilization device. The image stabilization device includes sensors, one or more arms, one or more motors, and a control unit. The sensors provide sensor data including orientation data, angular velocity data, and acceleration data. Each of the motors is associated with a respective arm. The control unit is configured to set a setpoint of the imaging device to a default setpoint, receive sensor data from the sensors, determine whether a flip condition exists, in response to determining that the flip condition exists, fix the setpoint of the imaging device, and in response to determining that the flip condition does not exists, maintain the default setpoint of the imaging device by moving at least one of respective arms with one of the respective motors.
