Abstract
A method and a device for image stabilization of an image sequence of one or more cameras of a vehicle are disclosed. Images of the surroundings of the vehicle are recorded and image points of the recorded images are projected to a unit sphere, where the projection includes applying a lens distortion correction. For each of the one or more cameras, a vanishing point is calculated using the projected image points on the unit sphere and a motion of the vanishing point on the unit sphere is tracked. The motion of the vanishing point is used to calculate a corrected projection to a ground plane.
