Hyperlapse: shooting accelerated video with image stabilization on a smartphone
Shortly after Microsoft , Instagram (Facebook) showed hyperlapse video with image stabilization. There is already a ready-made mobile application that you can try right now . Unfortunately, the free program was released only for iOS, and for Android there are no functions in the API.
The developers of the program are Alex Karpenko and Thomas Dimson, friends from Stanford University. In 2010, Karpenko defended his thesis on image stabilization, and in 2013, his company Luma developed technology to stabilize video on a smartphone. The secret is to use the accelerometer while shooting to compensate for camera movement.

Hyperlapse allows you to record on a smartphone up to 45 minutes of video, and then accelerate it up to 12 times the original speed. The interface is simple, everything works in a couple of clicks on the screen. The program does not require registration, like Instagram. After rendering, videos can be saved on a flash card or published anywhere.
Wired writes that earlier for shooting video with image stabilization, equipment worth $ 15,000 was required, but soon it can be done from almost any mobile gadget.
By the way, the function for recording hyperlapse video is in the next version of iOS 8, so soon iOS users will not even need to install a separate application for this.
