.SH DESCRIPTION |
18 |
.I Normpat |
19 |
normalizes one or more RADIANCE pictures to an average brightness of 1.0 |
20 |
and optionally removes fundamental frequencies and blends the edges |
21 |
of the image. |
22 |
The original images are overwritten during this process, and it is |
23 |
recommended that the program work on copies of the pictures for this reason. |
24 |
.PP |
25 |
The |
26 |
.I \-r |
27 |
option can be used to set the maximum horizontal or vertical resolution |
28 |
of the final result, which should not be greater than 256 for most |
29 |
patterns (due to the associated memory burden during rendering). |
30 |
The |
31 |
.I \-f |
32 |
option uses a Fourier transform to remove the lowest frequencies |
33 |
from the image, reducing the noticeability of pattern repitition. |
34 |
The |
35 |
.I \-b |
36 |
option can be used to blend the edges of the image so that when |
37 |
it is tiled, the seams are less apparent. |
38 |
The |
39 |
.I \-v |
40 |
option turns on the verbose flag, which prints on the standard output |
41 |
progress messages as the script runs. |
42 |
.PP |
43 |
.I Normpat |
44 |
is a shell script that makes calls to other RADIANCE programs |
45 |
that do the actual work. |
