There are situations where you cannot have specialized hardware on set, because you don't have a set - for example image stabilization is a key component in film restoration. For example: http://www.davsys.com/revival.html http://www.davsys.com/revival.html and http://www.hs-art.com/ http://www.hs-art.com/ those two are what I've seen and used in practice and both have A LOT to be desired for. I always said whoever solves automation of object recognition and pixel perfect outlines of them is a VERY RICH man. Current problem solving revolves around specialized software for rotoscoping masks around objects with a help of 2D and 3D tracking here and there. It is a very tedious job that requires a lot of man power. See, for example, http://www.mokey.com/ http://www.mokey.com/
