Abstract
Users often desire to capture certain images from an application. Existing methods of capturing images can result in low-resolution images due to limitations of the display device providing the images. This disclosure provides a method of capturing higher resolution images from source images. Techniques are also disclosed to reduce the storage size associated with the higher resolution images. Through capturing low-resolution versions of the same source images, image effects can be captured and applied to the higher resolution images where those image effects may be altered or missing. Frequency spectrum combination can be used to combine the low-resolution image data and the higher resolution image data. The higher resolution images can be processed using a segmentation scheme, such as tiling, without reducing or limiting the image effects.
