Improved image capture using liveview images

Current digital cameras suffer from poor performance in lowlight situations. This paper addresses the problem of improving camera performance by using liveview images to augment a final capture. Attention is given to improving only the lowand mid-range frequency information in the final capture, corresponding to available information in the liveview images. Attention is also given to providing a solution with a small memory and computational footprint. It is shown that liveview images can be used to improve image capture, even in scenes containing significant object motion.
