Heres a quick experiment I did to try and just show outlines of an image. Outlines occur where there is a change in colour, i.e along contours with a contrast greater than zero. By shifting two images over one another by a pixel or two in both the vertical and horizontal direction, and then calculating the difference between the two images in there new positions, the outlines can be found.
Just click below to check out an example:
After calculating the difference blend, the contrast is increased using a matrix filter. This method could be used for shape detection.
The next challenge would be to determine points along each contour, and store contour data to actually do something with it, instead of just showing it visually. Enjoy!
