Python - Edge Detection using Pillow

Pillow, also known as PIL (Python Imaging Library), is a powerful image processing library in Python. While it doesn't provide a direct method for edge detection like some other libraries (e.g., OpenCV), you can use the ImageFilter module in Pillow to apply edge-enhancing filters and get similar results.

Here's a simple example of how to perform edge detection using the ImageFilter.FIND_EDGES filter provided by Pillow:

from PIL import Image, ImageFilter # Open the image image = Image.open('path_to_image.jpg') # Apply the FIND_EDGES filter edges = image.filter(ImageFilter.FIND_EDGES) # Save the result edges.save('edges.jpg') # Display the result edges.show() 

For more advanced edge detection techniques (like Canny or Sobel edge detection), you would typically use libraries like OpenCV. However, for quick and basic edge detection, the method mentioned above with Pillow should suffice.

Remember to install Pillow before using it:

pip install Pillow
