Image Processing with SetPixel( )

[Computer Graphics]

0. reset the image which is opened.

1. Brighten individually the RGB channels of an image.


2. Change the contrast of an image.

Luminance = 0.30*r + 0.59*g + 0.11*b

3. Blur an image.


4. Detect edges in an image

1) Prewitt

2) Sobel

3) Frei_chen

4) Laplacian1

5) Laplacian2

6) Laplacian3


5. Warp an image by scaling.

My program can handle a real-valued input. Scaling is done with Reverse mapping. Input the scale value for width and height as the same, like (2,2).



6. Warp an image by swirl.

Reverse mapping and resampling processes is done.




* All results are individually saved as bitmap files as done by an effect.

The Buzz Log - Search Spikes and Trends

Wednesday October 05, 2005 3:00AM PT

For those of us who grew up in television's nurturing light, it seemed that the future of automated servants, robot defenders, and cyborg pals was just around the corner. But all these years later we still find ourselves cooking our own dinners, fending off telemarketers alone, and waiting to discuss electric sheep with sleepy androids.

So when "i, robot" more than doubled in Buzz yesterday, we seized on it as evidence that we're not the only ones watching for the droids to trundle over the horizon. We surveyed robot interest in Search, and we weren't surprised to see that the Japanese have this market covered: "japanese robot," "sony robot," "asimo robot," and "robot dog" abound. Woof!

Those looking for more fun ("robosapien," "toy robots"), help with housework ("robot vacuum cleaner," "robot litter box"), and a trip down memory lane ("lost in space robot") also pushed up the mechanical men at the Search box. (Danger Will Robinson!) Searchers got serious with "industrial robots," "military robots," and "history of robotics," but settled back down with "cartoon robots."

Finally, we applaud the do-it-yourselfers: "How to build a robot" and "robot kit" marched up high in the ranks. We may not yet live in a world George Jetson would recognize, but maybe we're inching closer. After all, we just heard of the mechanized bike-riding boy.
