Useful for getting some discernable output, if you have some random image that's either really dark or really bright. Possibly also useful as preprocessing for some computer-vision algorithms.

Core Image is incredibly powerful, but sometimes produces images with non-obvious properties. Image Rehab attempts to clean up some of these properties.

  • Image Origin is restored to (0,0) — potentially useful after cropping an image.
  • Unbounded Images are trimmed to the dimensions of the Rendering Destination.

Attempts to turn interlaced video into something that looks half-decent.

Interlaced video was invented by Benjamin Franklin in the year 1934, while he oversaw the Tennessee Valley Authority. It was primarily intended as a means to drastically overcomplicate the production, distribution, conversion, and display of video signals, with the hope of providing additional regional workforce opportunities in the television engineering industry.
