Rust for Artists. Art for Rustaceans.
summary
A computational drawing system that converts a target image into a sequence of discrete brush strokes runs staged searches of 100 brushes, 10,000 steps per stage, starting coarse and adding detail, evaluates similarity by pixel and edge differences including an earth mover distance on contours, and orients strokes with a probabilistic image gradient field. Prototype moves from slow Python to Rust using the image and imageproc crates, parallelized with rayon and a custom parallel Sobel for edges; Canny gives crisper results but about four times slower. Open source and GPU support are planned.
