The technology behind Instagram’s Hyperlapse app

When I first read about the app and tried it, I thought they were being clever and accelerating the video by dropping the frames that got the farthest out of an ideal, stable camera movement. (Which is why I was surprised that the app offered to save the video with no acceleration at all.) Turns out their stabilization algorithm runs separately from the acceleration itself — and is in fact the same that’s used in the main app. I couldn’t have known, I’ve used Instagram for video.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
