I'm sure the first step is taking many sharper short exposure shots (as opposed to longer exposures, which blur), then doing some tensor magic to stitch into a single image.

Object detection alone won't give you sharp text in low light. You need a minimum number of photons hitting pixels.

From the article: > Although it’s not one single long exposure, Google’s night mode still gathers light over a period of a few seconds, and anything moving through the frame in that time will turn into a blur of motion.

Right, but it's up to them how to process information coming in during these few seconds. Without a tripod it would be just a big blur without separating data into some frames. I don't think optical stabilization would be enough for such long exposures.
