    The deshaking program seems to require several passes through the file.

    I know of commercial systems used for "Eye in the Sky" systems e.g. helicopter video for news and traffic updates.

    Some high end Sony cameras have built-in stabilization.

    There are quite a few mechanical "arms" shown on Youtube e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9JXk4DLSMc

    Commercial system for a plane or heli may be cost prohibitive..
    However, methinks it might be a nice project > Interface a few servos wth an IMU. Program it to keep the camera level and average out the vertical bumps. Whaddya think?
