Coloring Pages Using Edge Detection

The Project

Our project is a website that will allow the users to upload a photo of their choice and have it made into a coloring page. The program can be used to assist in creating graphics for coloring games, which is often a time consuming process. Developers would be able to implement more coloring options easily by using our program, and casual users could create their own coloring pages of anything they want. The user is given the option to choose between three different methods of edge detection to suit their image. We used opencv in order to process and perform canny, contour, or sobel edge detection on the given images. The edge detected images can be saved on the device and printed in order to be used as coloring pages. The website also features a page that allows the user to put an edge detection filter on the live feed captured by their webcam to create instant coloring pages or just for fun. Frames filtered by the edge detection program can be saved and printed.
