  • Show HN: I built a tool to generate triangulated art from images

    This reminds me of a project I found by Antirez (the creator of Redis) recently called shapeme: https://github.com/antirez/shapeme - which uses simulated annealing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing to approximate an image using triangles. It took me down a really interesting rabbit hole: "The name of the algorithm comes from annealing in metallurgy, a technique involving heating and controlled cooling of a material to increase the size of its crystals and reduce their defects."

    I thought it was really interesting that a useful algorithm like this was created and possibly influenced by a natural process. I wonder if this repo uses the same type of algorithm?

    I think OP's project would be great to add as a new entry to the SQIP demo site [2].

    In the thumbnail demo, the LQIP-custom approach (simple resize to low-res jpg thumbail+optimize jpg) approach preserves the more salient features better and has compression on-par-or-better than SQIP with lower processing times. So in my opinion the simple extreme resize+jpgoptim is preferable for thumbnails.

    Thumbnails are only small part of LQIP story though and I can imagine RH12503/Triangula working much better for larger images.
