ComfyUI Node: RemapFromInsideParabolas

RemapFromInsideParabolas:

The RemapFromInsideParabolas node is designed to transform an image based on a mask containing two parabolas. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who want to apply complex geometric transformations to their images, creating unique and visually appealing effects. By leveraging the mathematical properties of parabolas, this node remaps the pixels inside the defined parabolic regions to a new image of specified dimensions. This transformation can be used to create artistic distortions, simulate lens effects, or generate abstract patterns, enhancing the creative possibilities for your projects.

RemapFromInsideParabolas Input Parameters:

src_mask_with_2_parabolas

This parameter expects a mask image that contains exactly two parabolas. The mask defines the regions within which the remapping will occur. The quality and accuracy of the transformation heavily depend on the clarity and precision of these parabolas. Ensure that the mask is correctly prepared to achieve the desired effect.

width

This integer parameter specifies the width of the output image. It determines how wide the remapped image will be. The default value is 512, with a minimum of 16 and a maximum of 4096. Adjusting this value allows you to control the horizontal resolution of the transformed image.

height

This integer parameter specifies the height of the output image. It determines how tall the remapped image will be. The default value is 512, with a minimum of 16 and a maximum of 4096. Adjusting this value allows you to control the vertical resolution of the transformed image.

RemapFromInsideParabolas Output Parameters:

remapped_image

The output of this node is the remapped image, which is generated by applying the transformation defined by the parabolic mask to the original image. This image will have the dimensions specified by the width and height parameters. The remapped image can be used directly in your artwork or further processed to achieve additional effects.

RemapFromInsideParabolas Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the mask image contains exactly two well-defined parabolas to achieve accurate remapping results.
• Experiment with different width and height values to see how the transformation scales and affects the final output.
• Use this node in combination with other transformation nodes to create complex and layered effects in your artwork.

RemapFromInsideParabolas Common Errors and Solutions:

Couldn't match two endpoints to one of the contours. It may be the case that the parabolas are too flat.

• Explanation: This error occurs when the node cannot identify two distinct endpoints for one of the parabolas, possibly because the parabolas are not well-defined or are too flat.
• Solution: Ensure that the parabolas in the mask are clearly defined and have distinct endpoints. Adjust the mask image to make the parabolas more pronounced.

Parabola Remap requires exactly 2 drawn lines, however it obtained <number> contours.

• Explanation: This error indicates that the mask image does not contain exactly two parabolas, which is a requirement for the remapping process.
• Solution: Verify that the mask image contains exactly two parabolas. If there are more or fewer contours, modify the mask to meet the requirement.
