Advice/idea for photo/video enhancement.
Hello guys,
I have trouble enhancing my security video. The video was made with a simple OEM wifi camera at night. The original video was lost, i only have a telephone screen recording i made for safety reasons.
There is a certain part of the video where the region of interest is in the edge of the pic and the camera went out of focus. This object is probably a police baton, but have to be sure about it. With small and fast movements.
I want to enhance, sharph that part.
Tried multiple things to achive it:
\\- different ai-s of topaz, frame interpolation, noise deduction. Topaz video and topaz photo as well for the extracted frames. Tried every available AI tool.
\\- capcut adjustments and ai help
\\- tried making image sequence from the “important” part of video and enhancing the pictures.
\\- tried addig diffenet type of point spread functions to try to reduce blurring and movement blurs. (made around 50 different types, different size with different movement direction)
\\- used fiji enhancement from contrast changing to DevonvolveLab2 with Richardson-Lucy format.
\\- tried z-stack with fiji, but there is not a single frame where the interested object is clear.
\\- tried enhancing with a quality enhance program using opencv and pythorc (called Restormer).
Tried using the above technologies one by one, later as a sequence, one after another. But nothing achived the desired quality, not even close. The interested part still remains blurred and out of focus, most of the cases it became smudgy like a painting.
What are your opinions about this? which technology should work 100%, and maybe i made a mistake with the settings, or the preprocessing.
Any suggestion how to proceed?
Thank you in advance!
