What it does

This is a web application that allows users to generate 8-bit style images for use as avatars on social media platforms. Users can upload their images, apply an 8-bit filter to them, and then download the transformed image. It's a fun and nostalgic way to add a retro touch to your online presence!

How we built it

I used flask and Computer Vision for the backend. For the design I used bootstrap. All the image processing is done in the background and stored in database

Challenges we ran into

  • Display image streams on the browser
  • converting to 8 bit
  • Uploading and downloading of converting images

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • I am so proud that I have a working app with all the P-0 features done.
  • users can upload and convert images

What we learned

  • I learned about advance flask, opencv and hosting the webapp. How to convert to 8-bit design

What's next for PIX8 - Genearate 8-Bit Art

  • we can enhance our 8-bit market
  • Adding overlay frames to make better avatars
  • Design can be improved
