Needed Image processing/I need to build an image tracing script

Job ID: 31503487

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

We need to design a "tracing" function that takes an image like the ones attached (BEFORE.png & BEFORE_2.png) and turns it into one continuous line (examples: AFTER.jpg & AFTER_2.jpg).

It should run through the lines and traces an outline without stopping to form 1 line only. As an example, please see COMPLETE EXAMPLE.png

POSSIBLE METHOD:
- Get a point cloud between edges and then do a nearest neighbour search to find the closest end of a line
- Then perform a gradient match between the two lines to get a curve
- investigate how Adobe Illustrator “Live Trace” may be able to automate as well You can use this method or any method of your choice.


We have had a web dev team attempt to work on this but we really need someone more experienced in this area to achieve this.

You can use any language you want!
