Answer 1

private Bitmap CreateBlurredImage (int radius)
{
   // Load a clean bitmap and work from that
    Bitmap originalBitmap=
    BitmapFactory.DecodeResource(Resources,Resource.Drawable.dog_and_monkeys);

// Create another bitmap that will hold the results of the filter.
Bitmap blurredBitmap;
blurredBitmap = Bitmap.CreateBitmap (originalBitmap);

// Create the Renderscript instance that will do the work.
RenderScript rs = RenderScript.Create (this);

// Allocate memory for Renderscript to work with
Allocation input = Allocation.CreateFromBitmap (rs, originalBitmap, Allocation.MipmapControl.MipmapFull, AllocationUsage.Script);
Allocation output = Allocation.CreateTyped (rs, input.Type);

// Load up an instance of the specific script that we want to use.
ScriptIntrinsicBlur script = ScriptIntrinsicBlur.Create (rs, Element.U8_4 (rs));
script.SetInput (input);

// Set the blur radius
script.SetRadius (radius);

// Start the ScriptIntrinisicBlur
script.ForEach (output);

// Copy the output to the blurred bitmap
output.CopyTo (blurredBitmap);

return blurredBitmap;

}

protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate (bundle);

SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);
_imageView = FindViewById (Resource.Id.originalImageView);

_seekbar = FindViewById (Resource.Id.seekBar1);
_seekbar.StopTrackingTouch += BlurImageHandler;

}

private void BlurImageHandler (object sender, SeekBar.StopTrackingTouchEventArgs e)
{
int radius = e.SeekBar.Progress;
if (radius == 0) {
    // We don't want to blur, so just load the un-altered image.
    _imageView.SetImageResource (Resource.Drawable.dog_and_monkeys);
} else {
    DisplayBlurredImage (radius);
}

}

private void DisplayBlurredImage (int radius)
{
_seekbar.StopTrackingTouch -= BlurImageHandler;
_seekbar.Enabled = false;

ShowIndeterminateProgressDialog ();

Task.Factory.StartNew (() => {
    Bitmap bmp = CreateBlurredImage (radius);
    return bmp;
})
.ContinueWith (task => {
    Bitmap bmp = task.Result;
    _imageView.SetImageBitmap (bmp);
    _seekbar.StopTrackingTouch += BlurImageHandler;
    _seekbar.Enabled = true;
    DismissIndeterminateProgressDialog ();
}, TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext ());
