I would like to take a picture in true black and white in my app. I searched for solutions (in this site too), but I always found solution to put a photo in gray scale (for example in this topic), but it's not what I am looking for ...
I also found a topic proposing this :
public static Bitmap createContrast(Bitmap src, double value) {
// image size
int width = src.getWidth();
int height = src.getHeight();
// create output bitmap
Bitmap bmOut = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height, src.getConfig());
// color information
int A, R, G, B;
int pixel;
// get contrast value
double contrast = Math.pow((100 + value) / 100, 2);
// scan through all pixels
for (int x = 0; x < width; ++x) {
for (int y = 0; y < height; ++y) {
// get pixel color
pixel = src.getPixel(x, y);
A = Color.alpha(pixel);
// apply filter contrast for every channel R, G, B
R = Color.red(pixel);
R = (int) (((((R / 255.0) - 0.5) * contrast) + 0.5) * 255.0);
if (R < 0) {
R = 0;
} else if (R > 255) {
R = 255;
}
G = Color.red(pixel);
G = (int) (((((G / 255.0) - 0.5) * contrast) + 0.5) * 255.0);
if (G < 0) {
G = 0;
} else if (G > 255) {
G = 255;
}
B = Color.red(pixel);
B = (int) (((((B / 255.0) - 0.5) * contrast) + 0.5) * 255.0);
if (B < 0) {
B = 0;
} else if (B > 255) {
B = 255;
}
// set new pixel color to output bitmap
bmOut.setPixel(x, y, Color.argb(A, R, G, B));
}
}
return bmOut;
}
But the image quality is horrible ...
Is anyone having an idea please?
Thank you
