Java blur Image

Question

I am trying to blur the image

   int radius = 11;
    int size = radius * 2 + 1;
    float weight = 1.0f / (size * size);
    float[] data = new float[size *         


        

Answer 1

I found this once when I was looking for a blur ability for documents when the ConvolveOp class didn't cut it (for the reasons you are running into). It does a Gaussian blur which is the most natural blur imho... Hopefully it will help you. I retrieved it from this webpage: Java Image Processing...
