An imaging system disables pixel integration for images within frames that
are identified as moving while enables pixel integration for images that
are not moving. The system may implement a frame-averaging type of
integration or recursive types of frame integration, or may refrain from
performing frame integration. On a pixel-by-pixel basis, the system may
compare a pixel from frame memory with a corresponding pixel of an input
frame and may disable pixel integration for the pixel when a difference
between the compared pixels exceeds a threshold. One of the integration
processes may be performed on the pixels when the difference does not
exceed the threshold. When frame integration is disabled or de-selected
(e.g., for pixels having motion), the frame memory may be bypassed and a
self-integration may be performed with corresponding pixels from a
current frame effectively resulting in no integration. Some embodiments
may use multiple thresholds, and may use different integration algorithms
depending on conditions within a scene.
