Digital image stabilization using accelerometer, on N900?

Very interesting stuff, thanks a lot for this. I wonder, are there any things, that are present in fCam (Maemo), yet lacking in rawcam? Also, do you know "lowlight" - a fCam derrivative, that takes low-light images, by shotting two frames, quickly - one with low exposure and high iso, and one with opposite setting - and combining them?

I think, that accelerometer stabilization mixed with above method could produce even better results (or not, if time between frames would be too long). What do ya think?

Edit: Same applies to "HDR picture" - another fCam derrivative, that takes few frames and combines them into HDR image. I wonder, if it could benefit for accelerometer stabilization, too? Both are FOSS, BTW.
