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
