Inspiration
The whole idea became on our head one day while we were visiting la Sagrada familia here in Barcelona. We tried to take a picture but there was always someone else standing in front and photobombing our own picture. We thought it could be cool to have an App able to remove people.
What it does
During a period of time, this app will take several photographs and erase the non constants from the final result.
How we built it
We build this app during the HackUPC Fall 2016 using android studio and our knowledge.
Challenges we ran into
Working with images and managing information of several big images at the same time without running out of memory
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We have a first beta able to remove people.
What we learned
We learned tons of stuff we did not know about android, about memory managing, about bitmaps and image processing in general.
What's next for TouristEraser
Our next goal would to parallelize the application and make the calculations far more faster using the several threads we have on our mobile available.
