Computer vision algorithms have relied primarily on either uniform resolution or multi-resolution techniques. In this paper, the question we try to answer is: How can varying resolution spatially within an image help in extracting information out of pictures? Specifically. we look at the problem of boundary following. To deal with these problems we design variable resolution (VR) masks, whose centers are windows in normal resolution, with each of the peripheral cells used to keep some information at a reduced resolution. In this way, VR approaches effectively look at a large region of the original image at a cost only slightly higher than processing a small region using uniform resolution schemes. The proposed algorithms are demonstrated to perform better than other well-known methods.
