Abstract

According to advancements in video technology, there are lots of needs for various special effects of videos. The conventional image-transform effects could be applied to video streams, but non-photorealistic rendering effects are not easy to apply. For example, cartoon or illustration effects have expensive costs in video transformation which makes it difficult to execute in real-time. In this paper, we suggest a video transformation system with illustration effects. It is designed to apply the illustration effects to the video stream directly and is implemented to achieve real time performances using the GPU hardware with NVIDIA's CUDA.
