Atkinson Dithering is a technique implemented as a classic 1-bit filter used for image processing.
This method converts each pixel to either black or white by comparing it to 50% grey, then redistributes the error to neighboring pixels.
The dithering pattern used is specific and has been utilized in software like Hyperdither and HyperScan.
The implementation requires a modern browser due to its use of Canvas, WebWorkers, and the FileReader API.
