An overlay refers to a transparent or semi-transparent layer that is placed over an image or video.
In graphics and multimedia, overlays are commonly used to add special effects, annotations, or additional information to a base image or video.
Some common types of overlays include text boxes, shapes, images, and maps.
Overlays can be added using image editing software, video editing software, or through the use of specialized graphics libraries and APIs.
In some cases, overlays are used to provide a visual cue to the viewer, such as highlighting an important object or area in an image, while in other cases they may be used to obscure or censor parts of an image or video.
