Filterpedia
Core Image Filter explorer
Filterpedia is an iPad app for exploring (almost) the entire range of image filters offered by Apple's Core Image framework. It is designed as a companion app to my upcoming book, Core Image for Swift which is due for publication in February 2016.
The UI is split into two sections: the table view on the left allows the user to navigate through and select a filter, the panel on the right then displays all the parameters of the selected filter which can be adjusted using horizontal sliders.
Filterpedia is also a showcase for custom filters I'm creating that are discussed in the book. These include simple compositions of existing CIFilter
, CIKernel
based filters using GLSL and filters that use Metal kernel functions as their filtering engine.
Core Image for Swift is available from:
Custom Filters
