Pixel Sort Lens

A lens that pixel-sorts the interface: within the circle, runs of pixels along the sort axis are dragged into luminance order, so type streaks into bright-to-dark ribbons. The streak length follows the local contrast, and the sort is a deterministic approximation done in one pass.

Seven gauges, one pass before shift.

Every reading here is real. Run the lens across the sheet and the flat fields streak into light while the numbers stay put.
