Digital image correlation (DIC) is a widely adopted optical technique to detect motions and deformations dealing with vision-based systems. Considering DIC dynamic applications, motion blur represents one of the most relevant sources of measurement uncertainty. This paper proposes an innovative approach to compensate the effect of motion blur on images coming from deformable bodies, where the amount of blur (w) varies within the single frame. A subset-based technique is developed to estimate and then remove motion blur for each image region. The algorithm is validated both on synthetic images and experimental data, demonstrating its effectiveness at improving the accuracy of the displacements measured by DIC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
