I had wondered when someone might take advantage of the proliferation of cheap and small inertial measurement sensors like this. These senors are already in everything from Wiimotes to cellphones and using them to improve the deconvolution techniques that help to reduce the appearance of blur in images makes sense. In the battle against camera shake every little bit helps and some cameras already ship with accelerometers (like Sony’s fancy panorama sweep stitching cameras) so it seems something like this might be closer to mass market reality than not. Hooray! Until then, lay off the coffee and maybe the jitters will subside. [...]
