Pixel Filter
Screen dimmer, which disables individual pixels, for AMOLED screens
Note: THIS PROJECT IS ABANDONED
Android 8 disallows any app to draw over notification panel or navigation buttons, so Pixel Filter cannot work properly on any newer phone, and nothing can be done about that.
Current bugs:
* Add Poisson-disc sampling algorithm for lulz.
* Option to start on battery percentage.
* Fix crashes when watching light level and rotating the phone.
* Diagonal lines on some devices - auto-calibrate bitmap offset using a screenshot.
* Filter does not cover navigation buttons fully when the keyboard is shown.
