If I have a list of pixel rows from an image in the following format, how would get the image?
[
[(54, 54, 54), (232, 23, 93), (71, 71, 71), (168, 167, 167)],
[(204, 82, 122), (54, 54, 54), (168, 167, 167), (232, 23, 93)],
[(71, 71, 71), (168, 167, 167), (54, 54, 54), (204, 82, 122)],
[(168, 167, 167), (204, 82, 122), (232, 23, 93), (54, 54, 54)]
]
PIL
and numpy
are your friends here:
from PIL import Image
import numpy as np
pixels = [
[(54, 54, 54), (232, 23, 93), (71, 71, 71), (168, 167, 167)],
[(204, 82, 122), (54, 54, 54), (168, 167, 167), (232, 23, 93)],
[(71, 71, 71), (168, 167, 167), (54, 54, 54), (204, 82, 122)],
[(168, 167, 167), (204, 82, 122), (232, 23, 93), (54, 54, 54)]
]
# Convert the pixels into an array using numpy
array = np.array(pixels, dtype=np.uint8)
# Use PIL to create an image from the new array of pixels
new_image = Image.fromarray(array)
new_image.save('new.png')
EDIT:
A little fun with numpy
to make an image of random pixels:
from PIL import Image
import numpy as np
def random_img(output, width, height):
array = np.random.random_integers(0,255, (height,width,3))
array = np.array(array, dtype=np.uint8)
img = Image.fromarray(array)
img.save(output)
random_img('random.png', 100, 50)
Haven't used PIL myself, but the best way of finding out is to open an actual image file using PIL. Then explore the API and objects involved with opening said image and look at how the pixel values are stored within the specific object pertaining to the API.
You can then construct a valid PIL image object using your extracted RGB values.
Edit:
See the following post: How do I create an image in PIL using a list of RGB tuples?
