Darren, the sensor shift idea would be _very_ simple to implement, and
because it would act just like the old fixed-in-position anti-moire
filters do; i.e. globally and without any processing involved. As soon
as you have to run some code over the entire image looking for
specific patterns you've got power-robbing CPU work, image pipeline
slowdowns, etc.

To implement the sensor shift idea, you could drive the sensor motors
with a single full sine wave each, with the X and Y signals 90 degrees
out of phase. This is just like driving stepper motors (a technique I
used to develop way back in the 1980's when I worked for an office
automation company designing daisy wheel printers).

Sending these signals to the sensor shift motors would cause the
sensor to describe a small circle. Mechanical gaussian blur.
