A simple WPF application to learn and demonstrate image convolution filters using the MVVM pattern in C#.
This project applies basic convolution filters (blur, sharpen, edge detection, etc.) to images. It’s designed as a learning tool to understand how convolution works in image processing.
Convolution is a fundamental operation used to process images by applying kernels (small matrices) to detect features or enhance visuals. It’s widely used in photo editing, computer vision, and machine learning.
- Load and display images
- Choose from different convolution kernels
- Apply filters and view results instantly
- Save processed images
- Responsive UI with processing status indicator
- C#
- WPF
- MVVM pattern
- Bitmap and BitmapImage conversions
- Load an image using the Load Image button
- Select a convolution filter from the dropdown
- Click Process to apply the filter
- View the result image
- Save the processed image if you like
Convolution lets you apply transformations to images by sliding a kernel over pixels. It’s how effects like blurring, sharpening, and edge detection work under the hood. Understanding this is key for anyone interested in image processing or computer vision.
