Abstract
This thesis focuses on the development of an image stabilization system for body-worn cameras. Body-worn cameras are frequently used in dynamic situations, exposing them to intense movements. Capturing sharp, high-quality footage in these conditions requires effective image stabilization systems. This investigation involved mapping the nature of the disturbances experienced by the body-worn camera through data collection and an external search for information. With a comprehensive literature study and the gathered data, a gimbal-based stabilization system was designed. The design process included selecting the necessary electrical components and developing custom software. CAD drawings of the design were created, followed by 3D printing of... (More)

This investigation involved mapping the nature of the disturbances experienced by the body-worn camera through data collection and an external search for information. With a comprehensive literature study and the gathered data, a gimbal-based stabilization system was designed. The design process included selecting the necessary electrical components and developing custom software. CAD drawings of the design were created, followed by 3D printing of the parts. These parts were then assembled with the other components to construct a prototype. The prototype's performance was tested demonstrating an improvement in image stability. This study provides insight into image stabilization systems and their complexity. It also offers a practical solution to mitigate the unwanted effects of camera movement, enhancing the reliability of surveillance in dynamic settings. (Less)
