Images and Array 1

[Chrissirhc]

Hello
I want to load an image and then turn it into an array. Java 2D to do this easily but I cannot see how. I need to turn the image into an array or some other type that I can then perform image processing on.
Can anyone help. I will be using black and white or greyscale images.

Thanks in advance

turn an image into an array? An array is a static container of data; an image is.. well, an image, a picture. A picture can not be an array. You must mean something completely different. [sig]<p>Liam Morley<br><a href=mailto:lmorley@wpi.edu>lmorley@wpi.edu</a><br><a href=

Of course a picture can be an array...it is just a set of pixels with x,y co-ordinates and a colour value, in its current form it is a blob of data, but I think that Chris wants to turn it into a set of values so that transformations can be done on it.

The set of data produced will be rather large though.

I think that Java allows image processing direct by extending java.awt.image.ImageFilter, for example CropImageFilter. Better to look at this rather than converting your picture into data values. [sig]<p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href=

Thanks. jnicho02 is right. I have looked about and found buffered image which allows me directly manipulte pixel values. Trying to work out how to make a proper binary image if anyone can help there that would be nice. The binary one that exists looks grey scale when I load it up need some help. I still don't really understand how I am going to perform math morphology or houph transform properly on them so if anyone knows about these things could you please post. [sig][/sig]

with Java you can process your images (without converting them to binary arrays)... Lookup the documentation for the following classes ...

RGBImageFilter
RGBColorModel - you 've to customize for your preference
ByteLookupTable etc.,

U can do lots of ImmageProcessing(basic level) using these classes.
