Make an artificial silhouette of the spray given in image using sine function.

I would like to make a silhouette of the spray given in image using sine function. I should be able to change the phase angle on both the left and right sides.

To get a binary image you can use imbinarize. I have no idea what you're talking about when you talk about sine and phase angles. What does that have to do with creating a silhouette?

Hi Edin,

I understand that you are trying to make silhouette of an image. You can use sine function as “amplitude * sin(frequency * x + leftPhaseAngle)” to generate y-axis values with varying phase angles for silhouette.

sprayImage = imread('spray_image.jpg');
sprayImage = im2double(sprayImage);
amplitude = 0.5; % Adjust the amplitude as needed
frequency = 0.02; % Adjust the frequency as needed
leftPhaseAngle = pi; % Adjust the phase angle for the left side
rightPhaseAngle = 0; % Adjust the phase angle for the right side

x = 1:size(sprayImage, 2);

% Generate the y-axis values using the sine function with varying phase angles
y = amplitude * sin(frequency * x + leftPhaseAngle);
y = repmat(y, size(sprayImage, 1), 1);

% Apply the silhouette effect to the image using a smooth transition
silhouetteImage = sprayImage .* (1 - y) + y;

figure;
imshow(silhouetteImage);

By experimenting with different values for the parameter's amplitude, frequency, leftPhaseAngle, and rightPhaseAngle in the above code, you can customize the silhouette effect to achieve desired appearance.
