Sharpen Filter

 
 
 

Detects and emphasizes high frequency information by removing low frequency information from the image. Low frequency information is subtracted from the image by performing a Low Pass filter and removing the results. The original image is then added back to the high frequency information. Sharpen Filter is a sub-set of the High Pass Filter with the Bias always set to 1.

Requires an Input (Any).

Produces an Output (Any).

Radius

Determines the range of information treated as high frequency. Set any pixel value using the slider. The larger the Radius, the greater the range of information that is treated as high frequency.

Effect Scale

Sets the emphasis given to the high frequency information. The pixel values of the high frequency information are multiplied by the Effect Scale value; thus an Effect Scale of 3 will cause the high frequency information to appear three times as bright. Set any value using the slider.

Accuracy

Accuracy lets you change the range of samples used to approximate a Gaussian blur of a given radius. For high accuracy (e.g., 90%) samples are taken over about twice the radius of the blur, while for the lowest accuracy (60%), samples are taken over the radius of the blur.
