Get ready to create a fantastic LEGO mosaic! Here is the general procedure to get started:
Upload your desired image to be converted into a mosaic. At this time, only images in png
and jpeg
format are supported. Note that due to limitations of the hosting platform, you will not be able to process images larger than 2 megabytes. Please use additional software to compress an image file that is larger than this size before uploading to the application.
After the upload completes, you will see a small preview of the raw image in the application.
You will be presented with a few additional inputs for customizing the features of your mosaic once your image is uploaded. Many of these settings mirror function parameters supplied to the image_to_mosaic
function contained in the {brickr}
package.
{farver}
R package drives the analysis. You can view more details about the different algorithms via WikipediaOnce your selections are complete, press the Create! button to begin creating your mosaic. In general, the processing will complete in 5 seconds or less, depending on the raw image.
After the mosaic is generated, you will see a few summary metrics associated with the bricks necessary to actually create the mosaic in real life (IRL).
