About:
Liblqr is a C/C++ library designed for seamless image resizing using the seam carving algorithm, also known as content-aware resizing.

This provides a powerful tool for dynamic image processing applications.
Key Features:
  • Content-aware image resizing
  • C/C++ library for easy integration
  • Supports transparency and alpha channels
  • Provides a rolling guide for energy calculation
Use Cases:
  • Automated image cropping for responsive web design
  • Video thumbnail generation preserving focal points
  • Photo editing software integration
Alternatives:
  • ImageMagick – ImageMagick is a comprehensive suite for image manipulation that includes seam carving, whereas Liblqr is a dedicated library focused solely on this algorithm.
