Image Filter Playground

Overview

The Image Filter Playground applies common image processing filters including blur, sharpen, edge detection, emboss, and more. Upload an image or use built-in samples, then apply filters and see results in real-time. Perfect for understanding convolution operations and spatial filtering.

Tips

  • Filters work by convolution with kernel matrices
  • Blur: averages neighboring pixels (Gaussian, box blur)
  • Sharpen: enhances edges by subtracting blur
  • Edge detection: Sobel, Prewitt find intensity gradients
  • Try combining multiple filters for artistic effects
  • Kernel size affects strength of filter effect
  • Applications: preprocessing, feature extraction, artistic effects
