We recently had a request for our Fusion plugin wizard for VS 2003, so here is a download link. Enjoy!

We’ve been adding CUDA support to many of our custom tools lately and finding speed-ups of 40x in some cases. This tool is an example of an idea that would be totally impractical (hence the krazy) without a highly parallel GPU-based approach. The algorithm takes each pixel in the input image, and finds the shortest distance (in RGB space) from it to the pixels in the “selection” image. This requires an every-pixel-to-every-pixel distance calculation, with the final shortest distance value compared to a threshold to determine whether or not to mask the pixel.
