Abstract

Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to image stabilization. Image stabilization includes techniques used to reduce jitter associated with the motion of a camera. Image stabilization can compensate for pan and tilt (angular movement, equivalent to yaw and pitch) of a camera or other imaging device. Image stabilization can be used in still and video cameras, including those found in mobile devices such as cell phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs).
