Class GLMirrorVideoEffect

Namespace: VisioForge.Core.Types.X.OpenGL

Assembly: VisioForge.Core.dll

Applies a GPU-accelerated mirror reflection effect to video frames using OpenGL shaders. This effect creates horizontal or vertical symmetry by reflecting portions of the video image along a center axis.

SDK Availability: Available in VideoCaptureCoreX, MediaPlayerCoreX, and Media Blocks SDK (Cross-platform)

Platform Support: Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, iOS (OpenGL ES)

GPU Acceleration: This effect uses hardware-accelerated OpenGL shaders to perform real-time geometric transformation entirely on the GPU. The mirroring operation uses optimized texture coordinate flipping for zero-copy processing.

Effect Description: The mirror effect splits the frame along a central axis (horizontal or vertical) and reflects one half onto the other, creating perfect bilateral symmetry. This can produce kaleidoscope-like or mandala patterns depending on the content, and can be applied horizontally (left-right reflection) or vertically (top-bottom reflection).

Use Cases:

Artistic and psychedelic visual effects for music videos or live performances
Creating symmetrical compositions for creative video production
Video conferencing applications with mirrored self-view
Educational demonstrations of symmetry and reflection concepts
Special effects in gaming or interactive installations
Correcting reversed video from certain cameras or capture devices

Performance: Extremely lightweight operation with negligible performance impact. The GPU-accelerated shader performs texture coordinate transformation without additional pixel processing, typically adding less than 0.5ms per frame. The effect has no dependency on frame content or complexity.
