Hi Everyone,
I'd like to share with you my photo fx app: Mini Image Studio. This app is sort of like Instagram or Photo FX Plus, however my aim is to focus on different photo fx, like RGB color modification and HSV effects (tonemapping, HDR etc) rather than making this a social networking app (though sharing with Facebook etc is possible thanks to very flexible android structure).
There are only a couple of effects present now, but I'll add more with the upcoming updates.
Current FX are:
[RGB]Grayscale
[RGB]Blur(*)
[RGB]Flatliner™
[RGB+HSV]Old Photo
[RGB+HSV]Retro Glow™
[RGB]Xpro™
[RGB]Spray™
[HSV]Litmus™
[HSV]Paster™
[HSV]Instant™
[MLIP]Tilt Shift™
[MLIP]Selective Coloring™
The ones with ™ are near 100% my code, while I've used several web sources for Sepia etc.
Mini Image Studio can also rotate and crop pictures.
Output of the processed images is limited at 1024*768 while there are no limitations on input size.
Your feedback/comment are quite welcome..
Here is the Play Store link

UI:
Showing Tilt-Shift
Showing Selective Coloring
(*) Blur effect uses code portions from Stack Blur Algorithm by Mario Klingemann.
(**)
[RGB] means effect is based on red-green-blue pixel components, which is in general simpler and faster compared to HSV fx. However the things that you can do with RGB are limited, on the other hand, [HSV] (hue-saturation-value) is more complex, closer to human eye in terms of image presentation and you can do cooler stuff such as HDR and tonemapping. MLIP means multilayered image processing, stands for indicating that image has more than one layers with different fx.
Also I would definitely appreciate your suggestions to speed up fx implementation, such as Native code..
Here is the changelog:
v1.2.0
Massive update, introducing Tilt Shift and Selective Coloring engines to allow touch based processing over the photos.
Added ability to rotate images with touch.
Disabled Crop support due to problem reports, will enable it after further testing.

If anyone out there wants an app idea.
Using the g sensor on the HD2 display two views of a 4wd.
One view (Top) is a rear view showing tilt left to right.
The second (Bottom) shows a side view showing its tilt front to back.
Requirements maybe skinnable and also a reset/zero button to compensate for mounting.
Basically as your driving the images rotate to show what angle and slope you are driving on.
That would be a cool app...

Tryed a few inclinometers but it's not the same...

Been playing with this tool. Pretty close.
Only needs a graphic change and screen saver blocker. Would be cool if it could re-call a previous zeroing.

Tomas.
Is it possible to get it working in Portrait mode?
Well,actually this would be not a problem.
Development modifications are minor to make it portrait,but there is lot of work with graphics. Therefore I have to wait a long time for the graphics from my designer.

Hi Tomas!
Tryed your demo and it looked great! But the round meters didn't work/show...? Not available in demo or did i do something wrong?
//Johan
Hmmm,strange... I don't understand,what exactly is wrong. Can you describe it better? Maybe screenshot will be helpful. Btw,tried on many devices,without problem.

Well,it seems to have some memory problem. I see this kind of problem during development first version. The rotation pictures are stored separately in 162 position images in one bitmap. This bitmap is quiet large with dimensions 1250x2125. 125x125 pixels per one image,10x16+1x2 in matrix. 125sq is also reason,that the image is not VGA sharp. If I tried to have 250x250pix images,the bitmap was so huge,that cannot load into the memory and I had same problem. What's your free memory? Tried softreset before starting?
I also have the same issue.
No pretty Lada.
Hello.
So I have replaced resources,so this is much smaller rotation image to fit into memory.
Try this out...
Please note,actually this is not a cab,but exefile with renamed extension.
Hello,the attached file is corrupted ...
Btw,if you want to use different "cars",you can create your own and post me them. In attachment,they are some examples.

Maybe because it is an exefile,not a cab?
did you renamed the extension to exe?
Sorry for that,but I cannot upload larger exefiles,XDA server doesn't allow it.
And that's an executable for your PDA,not PC.
Ok,it's really an exe file,i convert it to a cab file .
I posted this file just for a test for those,who has problems with car displaying. Can you confirm,if this works for you(if original doesn't)?

Safe Slideshow
Hi guys
Taking a lot of pictures during my holidays I had an idea for an app and this is the final result
Description

Very often we shoot amazing photos with our smartphone on holidays, special days, birthdays, and much more.
Then, when we want to show them to our friends we have no alternative except leave our device in their hands without so much control.
Even if you not have nothing to keep secret or to worry about, it's not so appropriate to leave all our data (like Whatsapp, Facebook, photos, etc.) accessible to anyone.
With Safe Slideshow you can avoid all these problems. You can choose which photos show to your friends, start the slideshow and sitdown. The app will lock your screen (like when you press the power button on the device side) and then show a scrollable slideshow with photos you chose. When someone close the slideshow device require your PIN or Pattern to unlock, so your data are safe.

Hey everyone!
I'd like to introduce you to my new app called Expose. It was released on 24th of December (on Christmas Eve, also, on my birthday)
So here's the compressed story of this app:
View attachment logo.webp
Background
I'm Ahmed Harmouche, co-founder and CTO of VIMAGE, a popular photo animation app.
For about 4 years we have been developing VIMAGE with the goal to create the most realistic photo animation app.
Hello GPU
This summer I started playing around with other techniques, forgetting a bit about our "most realistic" mission, and moving towards artistry, colors, lights, glitch, and other things I found interesting. From a technical point of view I transitioned from the CPU based Canvas (VIMAGE rendering is 99% CPU and Canvas based) world, to the GPU based OpenGL + fragment shader world.
I found it quite fascinating what amazing effects you can achieve in fragment shaders. I browsed a lot through Shadertoy and learned from the cool shaders created by this amazing community.
Move the glitch!
As I looked around I saw glitch effects are quite popular, on photos and in videos as well. The apps out there for photo produce static glitch photo output, video glitch editors, of course, produce video, but I didn't see apps producing glitch videos from photos. There are some, but they don't focus on moving filters. Photoshop Camera for example, they have some presets that move, but only a handful. So I wanted an app the focuses on moving glitch filters.
The app
Only glitch though? As I researched a bit more I found other interesting effects that could fit in the app: dual lightning, split color, color switch, drip art. These are all effects that you can find (more or less) in other apps like PicsArt, but they are all static. So I put them also in the app, as moving filters.
The other twist in the app, besides that filters are live, is that filters can affect only the background, only the foreground, or the whole photo, automatically, by a technique called Saliency Object Detection, achieved using a neural network. So when I code a preset, I can specify what effect I want on each layer.
An important aspect of the app is that it is preset based. The reason of this is that as VIMAGE grew big and quite advanced from the initial "pick an effect and generate" workflow, I wanted to go back to simplicity. Just select a preset, and everything is set for you. But as Albert Einstein said "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler", I also provided some seekbars so that the user can tweak the parameters of the presets. One missing piece for not breaking this "no simpler" rule is manual masking. If AI foreground selection fails, filters can look bad, so manual masking is needed in this case.
So summarized, the app is a preset-based photo editing app, that focuses on moving, looping (glitch) filters, and can automatically apply filters on background and foreground.
The release
After some internal testing, and a short pre-registration period, we went live on 24th of December. It's very early to draw any conclusions, as numbers are pretty small yet, but as I see the analytics a large percentage of users save and share their work, so it seems they like what they're creating. As what's next: I'm fixing crashes, and analyzing the data, to see with which preset categories the users engage the most, and then I will focus more on those categories.
This release was very exciting for me, as the whole tech stack of the app is completely different from VIMAGE: It is written in Kotlin, using Android Architecture Components, and the rendering is OpenGL based.

Future plans
At the initial idea stage I knew I wanted this app to be a platform where others can create presets and share them. The reason is that now I'm the one who codes the presets, but I'm sure there are a lot of more creative editors/creators out there who can build a lot more amazing effects than me, so why not let them do so? It's like when you build a game engine, you won't necessarily build the best games. Or if you know how to make a guitar, will you be the best guitar player? The other reason is that I think an in-app community, a platform can drive user engagement and retention.
So, that's all folks! I hope you will like the app, and any feedback, suggestion is greatly appreciated!
