This package is not currently in any snapshots. If you're interested in using it, we recommend adding it to Stackage Nightly. Doing so will make builds more reliable, and allow stackage.org to host generated Haddocks.

Compose a collage from overlapping image parts. In contrast to Hugin, this is not intended for creating panoramas from multiple photographies, but instead is specialised to creating highly accurate reconstructions of flat but big image sources, like record covers, posters or newspapers. It solves the problem that your scanner may be too small to capture a certain image as a whole.

There are two versions of the program:

  • A version using LLVM via the knead package: Enable it with the Cabal flag -fllvm.

  • A version using CUDA via accelerate-cuda: Enable it with the Cabal flag -fcuda.

Both of them have their individual installation difficulties.

Restrictions:

  • Only supports JPEG format.

  • Images must be approximately correctly oriented.

  • May have problems with unstructured areas in the image.
