Inspiration

Most coloring books these days are cartoon characters and Disney princesses. We wanted to give people the option to make their own pictures into coloring pages.

What it does

The user uploads an image, which is then turned into a coloring page (just the outlines remain). The user can then print it and color it however they want!

How we built it

This project uses the Canny algorithm to retain just the contours of an image.

Challenges

It was challenging to get the html front end to interact with the python code in order to pass the image back and forth.

Accomplishments

Getting something done!

What we learned

Web development and design, image processing, backend server interactions and web development

What's next for Color My World

Improvements on the user experience, improvements on the contour-detecting algorithm
