OpenCV Image Blur

A simple program to test OpenCV image blur filters mean (blur) and median (medianBlur).

Based on this code on the OpenCV documentation. A refactored version can be found in src/original.py.

The modified code is on the src/smoothing.py file.

Configuration

The following values can be modified by the user:

• image: the full or relative path to the image.
• filter strategy: the blur algorithm to be used. Valid values are mean or median
• blur delay: how long does each processing image stays on the screen (ms). Type 0 to disable this feature and pass them through a key press.

This configuration can be done in three diferent ways:

1. By answering the prompt questions
2. By passing command-line arguments in the following order: image, filter strategy and blur delay.
3. By using the default values:
   • image: ../data/uniform-plus-saltpepr.tif
   • filter strategy: median
   • blur delay: 0 ms

Futher configuration can be done through directly editing the global variables' section of the src/smoothing.py file.
