Editing Images

This page describes the options available when editing images in LeiaPlayer.

Editing Tools

Depth Slider

  • The Depth slider controls the disparity value of your image. As you move the slider up, you will perceive more depth

  • Disparity is the difference in image location of the same 3D point when projected under perspective to two different camera views

  • Perception of depth arises from the “disparity” of a given 3D point in your right and left retinal images

Focus Slider

  • The Focus slider controls the convergence value of your image.

  • As you move the slider up, more objects in your image will appear to be popping out of the front of the screen

  • As you move the slider down, more objects in your image will appear to be moving backward behind the screen

  • The convergence value is the point at which the left and right eye images align, which sets the location of convergence at the screen plane

  • Objects in front of this point will appear to be in front of the screen and those behind will appear to be behind the screen

Bokeh Slider

  • The bokeh slider controls the digital blur applied to background pixels that are located behind the convergence plane

  • If you move the convergence slider to the very top, there are no pixels considered as behind the convergence plane, and thus aren’t part of the background

  • Thus you won’t see any digital blur applied to those pixels, even if you move the Bokeh slider to the very top

Color

  • These are primarily straightforward chroma editors that you will see in any mobile photo editing app

Brightness

  • This will increase the brightness of all shadows and highlights in your image

  • Your photo will look brighter overall as you move the slider up

Saturation

  • This will increase the photo’s color intensity

  • The colors in your photo will look more intense as you move the slider up

Contrast

  • Contrast is the range of difference between different tones in a photo

  • For black and white photos, contrast describes the difference between the darkest and lightest tones

  • For color photos, contrast applies to how sharply colors stand out from one another

  • As you move the slider up, bright colors will appear brighter

  • As you move the slider down, dark colors will appear darker

Hue

  • Adjusting the Hue slider to see shifts in the color values in your images

  • You can radically alter your photos colors

  • Smaller, more incremental adjustments can effectively reduce unwanted color casts and correct the photos white balance

Color Pop

  • Color Pop will remove color from pixels considered as part of the background

  • This makes the colors of objects in the foreground really standout

  • This is the only feature in the Color section that makes use of the disparity map

Resize

  • Simple tools for resizing and rotating your image.

  • Note that if you crop an image down to a smaller size, its disparity and convergence values will increase, which will increase the depth sensation

Relighting

  • This is where the artistic flavor gets added

  • Tap any of the relighting presets, and you will have different lighting configurations added to your image.

  • These lighting placements use the depth map to get placed into different parts of the image.

Filters:

  • Apply styles to your images by selecting the preset filters.

  • As with relighting, you can apply multiple presets to each image to create your own custom styles.

  • Combine these filters with a bunch of relighting presets to make each image a unique work of art
