Abstract
A user touches a touch sensitive display or otherwise provides input comprising “stroke” gestures to trace areas which are to be the subject of post-processing functions. The stroke area is highlighted and can be added to or corrected by additional stroke and “erase” gestures. Pixel objects are detected proximate to the stroke area, with a precision based on the zoom level. Stroke gesture input may be received and pixel object determination may be performed in series or in parallel.
Claims21
A method of detecting objects in a digital image in a computer comprising a memory, comprising:
- obtaining, in a first buffer in the memory, a digital image comprising pixels;
- rendering the digital image in a display of the computer;
- receiving user stroke input relative to the first buffer in a touch-sensitive input interface of the computer;
- performing pixel object detection on pixels corresponding to the received user stroke input;
- and
- saving the output of the pixel object detection in a second buffer in the memory.
