This Rust program applies a box blur kernel to an image using parallel processing (utilizing Rayon) and saves the blurred output.

Install Rust (if not installed):
Make sure you have Rust installed on your system. If not, follow the instructions on Rust's official website to install it.
- Build the Project:
cargo build --release
- Run the Program:
Execute the following command:
./target/release/blur <kernel_size> <input_image_path> <output_image_path>
Replace <kernel_size> with the desired size of the box blur kernel (e.g., 5, 7, 9, etc.).
Provide the <input_image_path> as the path to the image file you want to blur, and <output_image_path> as the desired path for the resulting blurred image.
Example:
./target/release/image-blur 5 input.jpg output_blurred.jpg
- Check Output:
Once the program finishes, the blurred image will be saved at the specified <output_image_path>.
- The program applies a box blur filter of the specified kernel size to the input image using parallel processing with Rayon.
- Ensure the input image exists at the provided path and that you have write permissions for the specified output path.
The image border was not taken in consideration. so "half of kernel size pixels" in the border will be kept as original;
