Celsys’ Komatoon involves dividing traditional page-by-page comics into individual panels for online viewing in a vertical format. As well as image processing, layout changes, and coloring, more than 100 effects including transitions and vibrations can be added. Using this method to reuse already available comic panel data can help comic publishers reduce costs compared to creating webtoons from scratch.
