Abstract
Nowadays, smartphone cameras capture bursts of raw photographs whenever 
the trigger is pressed. These photos are then fused to produce a single 
picture with higher quality. This paper details the implementation of 
the method 'Handheld Multi-Frame Super-Resolution algorithm' by Wronski 
et al. (used in the Google Pixel 3 camera), which performs 
simultaneously multi-image super-resolution demosaicking and denoising 
from a burst of images. Hand tremors during exposure cause subpixel 
motions, which combined with the Bayer color filter array of the sensor 
results in a collection of aliased and shifted raw photographs of the 
same scene. The algorithm efficiently aligns and fuses these signals 
into a single high-resolution one by leveraging the aliasing to 
reconstruct the high-frequencies of the signal up to the Nyquist rate of 
the sensor. This approach yields digitally zoomed images up to a factor 
of 2, which is the limit naturally set by the sensor pixel integration. 
We present an in-depth description of this algorithm, along with 
numerous implementation details we have found to reproduce the results 
of the original paper, whose code is not publicly available.
