An efficient brush model for real-time oil painting using image processing algorithms

This approach simulates the physical process of the brush movement using a parametric model, based on three dimensional geometric parameters of the AUT Brush. AUT Brush is a model-based device with which one can paint on an ordinary computer monitor. The position of the brush is located using a camera mounted on the brush handle. Then, image processing algorithms are used to calculate the amount of brush touch with screen. To do this, a geometric shape model of brush is used to measure the brush force by simulating Force-Resistor dynamic of FSR. Additionally, the brush tip is modeled for different situations by using fuzzy computational algorithms. Consequently, stroke trajectory footprints are generated by footprint modeling.
