1. An electronic device, comprising:
- an image sensor;
an image sensor interface for receiving input data from the image sensor;
an instruction input interface configured to receive a signal and decode the signal into image processing instructions, wherein an example image corresponding to the image processing instructions comprises an image distorted by a particular effect of executing the image processing instructions; and
multiple processing units interconnected with each other for parallel processing of data from the image sensor interface to generate an output image based on distorting an input image corresponding to the input data by the particular effect.
