Random Jitter

This algorithm moves each pixel of a source image in random direction within a window of specified radius.

   

• C#
• VB.Net

									public static void ApplyRandomJitter(ref Bitmap bmp, short degree)
{
	Bitmap TempBmp = (Bitmap)bmp.Clone();

	BitmapData bmpData = bmp.LockBits(new Rectangle(0, 0, bmp.Width, bmp.Height), ImageLockMode.ReadWrite, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb);

									Bitmap b = (Bitmap)Image.FromFile("rose.jpg");
ApplyRandomJitter(ref b, 20);
