Claim 19:
20. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory containing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to configure the one or more processors to:
receive at least one sequence of digital images from an image acquisition device, the sequence of digital images including at least one digital image, the at least one digital image resulting from a photographic exposure of a scene over a duration of exposure time, the scene including at least one motile object or medium within a field of view of the acquisition device, the at least one motile object or medium creating a motion blur within the photographic exposure when moving during the exposure time of the at least one digital image;
determine if there is a motion blur in a particular image, the particular image being based on one or more of the one sequence of digital images;
if there is the motion blur in the particular image:
analyse the motion blur created by the at least one motile object or medium within the field of view by measuring spatial changes in pixel values based on the at least one digital image to generate motion parameters; and
provide a first feedback signal based on the motion parameters to at least one controller to generate first control commands having sensitivity to movement of the at least one motile object or medium that varies in accordance with movement of the at least one motile object or medium; and

if there is an absence of the motion blur in the particular image, providing a second feedback signal to the at least one controller to generate second control commands.
