Up until now, existing anti-shaking technologies for digital cameras remain pricey due to costs associated with the required dedicated optical system and the memory chip used for image processing. This technology currently being developed by Epson Toyocom Corporation does not need any of those costly additions. What it does is predict the amount of blur that would go into the picture before you press the shutter by using a gyro sensor. Depending on the data gleaned to predict the amount of blur, the ISO sensitivity and the shutter speed are adjusted. The higher the amount of predicted blur due to movement, the higher the shutter speed should be.

Since this technology only entails the use of a gyro sensor and a microcontroller, it would cost much lower than those high-end anti-shaking technologies. Of course, the quality of the resultant picture can't compare to that produced by using the latter but that's why this technology is aimed towards camera phones. Epson says that the technology is ready for commercial application and could be used by clients anytime.
