Both Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) are sensor-powered methods to compensate for movement and jitter that degrade the quality of photographs and videos. The latest smartphones, cameras, and drones use OIS and/or EIS to deliver sharp images and smooth high-resolution videos.

Optical image stabilization
Reduce blurring from shaking of the image sensor in a user’s hand
Integrating MEMS gyroscope powered OIS into camera modules has proven to be a highly effective solution to improve image quality in smartphones, digital cameras, drones and other products with high resolution image sensors. This can enable a smartphone to take professional level pictures that until recently were only possible to expensive DSLR mounted in gimbals.
Electronic image stabilization
Ensure smooth playback by removing the video shake resulting from hand jitter
EIS compensates for any movement caused by hand jitter, turbulence, or bumps that would cause a shaking effect. EIS intelligently detects image sensor movement and crops each individual image to compensate in real time. The result is dramatically smoother video capture from devices, such as smartphones, without requiring additional gimbals to provide physical stabilization.
Improved image quality contributes to great devices
Don’t let blurring or jitter spoil the user experience
Smartphones, tablets and laptops
Picture and video quality is a key selling point for smartphones, and increasingly incorporated into tablets and laptops
Digital cameras
DSLR, super zoom, point & shoot, as well as professional cameras need top-notch stabilization to deliver amazing image quality
Drones
Enable super smooth and clear imaging on drones, even in windy conditions
Robotics
Safe and smooth movement depends on accurate object and environmental sensing enabled by stabilized imaging
