HistogramEqualize Method
Summary
Linearizes the number of pixels, in an image, based on the specified color space. This can be used to bring out the detail in dark areas of an image. This operation is useful for pre-processing images for the purpose of improving barcode recognition results.
Example
using Leadtools.Services;
public void HistogramEqualizeExample()
{
ColorProcessingServiceClient client = new ColorProcessingServiceClient();
RawBinaryData sourceBinaryData = new RawBinaryData();
sourceBinaryData.Data = File.ReadAllBytes(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "image1.cmp"));
RasterConvertOptions convertOptions = new RasterConvertOptions();
convertOptions.Source = sourceBinaryData;
convertOptions.Destination = null;
convertOptions.Format = RasterImageFormat.Bmp;
convertOptions.FirstPage = 1;
convertOptions.LastPage = 1;
convertOptions.BitsPerPixel = 24;
convertOptions.QualityFactor = 2;
HistogramEqualizeRequest request = new HistogramEqualizeRequest();
request.ConvertOptions = convertOptions;
request.RegionData = null;
request.Type = HistogramEqualizeType.Yuv;
CommandResponse response = client.HistogramEqualize(request);
if (response.Destination != null)
{
if (response.Destination is RawBinaryData)
File.WriteAllBytes(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "HistogramEqualize.bmp"), (response.Destination as RawBinaryData).Data);
}
