An Android library that applies a StackBlur (gaussian-like) blur effect to Bitmaps with configurable radius or gradient. It offers Java, NDK native, and RenderScript processing backends, with the native option being 25-30x faster.

Use cases

  • blur a background image behind a dialog in Android
  • apply gaussian blur to a bitmap with a given radius
  • create frosted glass effect on Android
  • blur images fast using native code on Android
  • apply gradient blur effect to photos in an app

When to choose

  • you need bitmap blurring on Android with broad device compatibility
  • you want a choice of Java, NDK, or RenderScript blur implementations for performance tuning

When to avoid

  • you need blur on platforms other than Android
  • you want a modern, actively developed image processing pipeline with Maven Central support
