New tool boosts manga image quality on eInk readers

Original: Show HN: Using 2D DFT, dithering, etc. to maximize eInk manga image quality

A developer has shared a project applying 2D discrete Fourier transforms, dithering and other image-processing techniques to improve how manga looks on eInk displays, which have limited grayscale depth and slow refresh rates. The work builds on Kindle Comic Converter, an open-source tool for optimising comics and manga for e-readers, and has drawn interest from readers experimenting with the approach on their own devices.

Why now: E-ink enthusiasts are interested in practical techniques to improve grayscale image rendering on low-power e-reader screens.
