The Kaleidoscope effect creates symmetrical patterns by mirroring and repeating sections of your content around a central point.
How it works
Kaleidoscope works by converting your image to polar coordinates, dividing it into a specified number of segments, and then mirroring these segments to create symmetrical patterns. The effect takes a wedge-shaped section of your content and repeats it around a central point, creating patterns similar to those seen in a physical kaleidoscope toy.
Use cases
- Creating symmetrical abstract patterns from any content
- Generating mandala-like designs from simple imagery
