Video stabilization based on point feature matching technique

Abstract

This study proposed an algorithm to stabilize jittery videos directly without the need to estimate camera motion. A stable output video will be attained without the effect of jittery that caused by shaking the handheld camera during video recording. Firstly, salient points from each frame from the input video is identified and processed followed by optimizing and stabilize the video. Optimization includes the quality of the video stabilization and less unallied area after the process of stabilization. The output of using such method showed good result in terms of stabilization and discarded distortion from the output videos recorded in different circumstances. Initial results showed that the proposed technique is suitable to be used and provide great deal of stabilization.
