RWBlurPopover

Show a UIViewController in a popover with background blurred. Support iOS 5.1+ on iPhone and iPad. Inspired by Twitter #music.

This project uses GPUImageFastBlurFilter from GPUImage to do the blurring. GPUImage is faster than Core Image CIGaussianFilter according to this article Blur Effect in iOS Applications, and CIGaussianFilter is only available on iOS 6+, while GPUImage supports iOS 4.0+.

ARC is required.
