Image Blur

Class: ImageBlurBlockV1

Source: inference.core.workflows.core_steps.classical_cv.image_blur.v1.ImageBlurBlockV1

Apply a blur to an image. The blur type and kernel size can be specified.

Type identifier

Use the following identifier in step "type" field: roboflow_core/image_blur@v1to add the block as as step in your workflow.

Properties

Name	Type	Description	Refs
name	str	Enter a unique identifier for this step..	❌
blur_type	str	Type of Blur to perform on image..	✅
kernel_size	int	Size of the average pooling kernel used for blurring..	✅

The Refs column marks possibility to parametrise the property with dynamic values available in workflow runtime. See Bindings for more info.
