Function Documentation

◆ blur1d()

void blur1d	(	CRGB *	leds,
		uint16_t	numLeds,
		fract8	blur_amount )

One-dimensional blur filter.

Spreads light to 2 line neighbors.

0 = no spread at all
64 = moderate spreading
172 = maximum smooth, even spreading
173..255 = wider spreading, but increasing flicker

Total light is NOT entirely conserved, so many repeated calls to 'blur' will also result in the light fading, eventually all the way to black; this is by design so that it can be used to (slowly) clear the LEDs to black.

Parameters

leds	a pointer to the LED array to blur
numLeds	the number of LEDs to blur
blur_amount	the amount of blur to apply

◆ blur2d()

void blur2d	(	CRGB *	leds,
		uint8_t	width,
		uint8_t	height,
		fract8	blur_amount )

Two-dimensional blur filter.

Spreads light to 8 XY neighbors.

0 = no spread at all
64 = moderate spreading
172 = maximum smooth, even spreading
173..255 = wider spreading, but increasing flicker

Total light is NOT entirely conserved, so many repeated calls to 'blur' will also result in the light fading, eventually all the way to black; this is by design so that it can be used to (slowly) clear the LEDs to black.

Parameters

leds	a pointer to the LED array to blur
width	the width of the matrix
height	the height of the matrix
blur_amount	the amount of blur to apply

Definition at line 446 of file colorutils.cpp.

◆ blurColumns()

void blurColumns	(	CRGB *	leds,
		uint8_t	width,
		uint8_t	height,
		fract8	blur_amount )

Perform a blur1d() on every column of a rectangular matrix.

Parameters

leds	a pointer to the LED array to blur
width	the width of the matrix
height	the height of the matrix
blur_amount	the amount of blur to apply

◆ blurRows()

void blurRows	(	CRGB *	leds,
		uint8_t	width,
		uint8_t	height,
		fract8	blur_amount )

Perform a blur1d() on every row of a rectangular matrix.
