Morpho Revamps Video Stabilization Software “MovieSolid®”
- Rolling Shutter Distortion Correction Added -

Tokyo, Japan – November 30, 2011 – Morpho, Inc., the global leader in software image processing solutions for mobile devices, releases “MovieSolid 2.0” which is a succeeding version to its original video stabilizer software “MovieSolid”. This new version has rolling shutter distortion correction added as a new feature.

“MovieSolid 2.0” is a video stabilization technology utilizing “SOFTGYRO®,” a motion detection technology. By comparing the previous frame and the current frame, it detects the amount of blurs in the image and outputs the corrected current frame in real time. “MovieSolid 2.0” can correct blurs caused from zooming in on a hand-held device, because it enables blur correction in 4 DOF(degrees of freedom); horizontal rotation, vertical rotation, forward/backward direction, and forward/backward rotation. In addition to correcting blurs created by hand-holding the device, “MovieSolid 2.0” can correct geometric distortion (rolling shutter distortion) caused by shooting a movie using a device with CMOS sensor.
