I was trying to sharpening on some standard image from Gonzalez books. Below are some code that I have tried but it doesn't get closer to the results of the sharpened image.
cvSmooth(grayImg, grayImg, CV_GAUSSIAN, 3, 0, 0, 0);
IplImage* laplaceImg = cvCreateImage(cvGetSize(oriImg), IPL_DEPTH_16S, 1);
IplImage* abs_laplaceImg = cvCreateImage(cvGetSize(oriImg), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1);
cvLaplace(grayImg, laplaceImg, 3);
cvConvertScaleAbs(laplaceImg, abs_laplaceImg, 1, 0);
IplImage* dstImg = cvCreateImage(cvGetSize(oriImg), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1);
cvAdd(abs_laplaceImg, grayImg, dstImg, NULL);
