SteadyDancer is a research-oriented motion stabilization and dancer tracking system designed to analyze and correct motion in videos, making captured performances appear smoother and more stable while preserving expressiveness. It employs computer vision and motion modeling to estimate and reduce unwanted jitters, shakes, or camera wobbles — particularly in dance or movement sequences where traditional smoothing would distort intentional motion. By differentiating between intentional rhythmic motion and unintentional instability, SteadyDancer applies adaptive filtering that enhances video quality without flattening the core movement dynamics. The system can be used both in preprocessing pipelines for content creators and in live feedback loops for performers, giving dancers and videographers a tool to refine their visual outputs. It supports integration with standard video formats and includes customizable parameters so users can tune stabilization aggressiveness.
