Abstract:
In this paper we present an algorithm for a glass-painting filter. The filter inputs any arbitrary 2D image and converts it into its equivalent glass painted form. The initial image is processed through various non-photorealistic rendering stages. The major steps involved in the process include -- edge detection and refinement, conversion of image into painted form, changing the appearance of the paints into glass paints and enhancing the image with black colored outlines and crushed silver foil background. The specular effect is also achieved by reflection mapping on per-pixel basis.
