| Title: |
Reduced Complexity and Blur Technique for an Electronic Lighting System |
| Abstract: |
Digital blurring of an image is carried out by blurring using a linear or
piecewise continuous blurring function. The blurring function blurs a
rectangular portion of an image so that the blurring can be embodied by
vertical blurring followed by halls on pull blow. Blurring is done by
getting on portion of the line of pixels, adding and dividing by the
number of pixels. All the columns are blurred, followed by all of the
rows being blurred. The columns and rows can be blurred at the same time
to maximize the number of cache hits.
