Motion blur

When we apply the motion blurring effect, it will look like you captured the picture while moving in a particular direction. For example, you can make an image look like it was captured from a moving car.

The input and output images will look like the following ones:

Following is the code to achieve this motion blurring effect:

import cv2 import numpy as np img = cv2.imread('input.jpg') cv2.imshow('Original', img) size = 15 # generating the kernel kernel_motion_blur = np.zeros((size, size)) kernel_motion_blur[int((size-1)/2), :] = np.ones(size) kernel_motion_blur = kernel_motion_blur / size # applying the kernel to the input image output ...
