How it works
Important
Keep an untouched copy of important source files. Browser processing depends on available device memory, and you should inspect every downloaded result before deleting the original.
Practical details
Apply a fast local blur from one to twenty pixels to a JPG, PNG, or BMP image and export the result as PNG.
Ordinary blur is not secure redaction: underlying information may remain recoverable or inferable. Use irreversible opaque redaction for confidential content.
Lucaden adds a focused workflow, conservative memory limits, before-and-after preview, privacy checks, and exact attribution.
Questions
No. Browser Canvas decodes and exports the image in memory, while the pinned Jimp effect modules change its pixels locally.
Ordinary blur is not secure redaction: underlying information may remain recoverable or inferable. Use irreversible opaque redaction for confidential content.
Jimp 1.6.1 (MIT) performs the deterministic pixel operation; the browser's Canvas API performs PNG export. The upstream project retains its name, copyright, and license.
Open-source foundations
Lucaden documents its standards sources, architectural references, and permissive runtime dependencies while keeping this workspace consistent with the Lucaden interface.
