[R] image registration/alignment algorithm

[Bob Meglen]

Dec (6/5) 2006 Newsletter mentioned that EBImage might include image 
registration/alignment as "of foreseeable interest".
My present Newsletter and Help Digest search finds no mention of this. Does 
anyone know of someone who might have implemented an image alignment or 
image registration algorithm in R?

I have a need to align (or determine x-y translation) of multiple images 
that are slightly translated from frame-to-frame.
I have looked at Registax5 used in astrophotography, but just want to align 
my images without adding them together for improved resolution. I need to 
take n 1st generation jpeg images and create n aligned jpeg images.
