Getting Started with Images {#tutorial_py_image_display}
|
||||
===========================
|
||||
|
||||
Goals
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
- Here, you will learn how to read an image, how to display it, and how to save it back
|
||||
- You will learn these functions : **cv.imread()**, **cv.imshow()** , **cv.imwrite()**
|
||||
- Optionally, you will learn how to display images with Matplotlib
|
||||
|
||||
Using OpenCV
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
### Read an image
|
||||
|
||||
Use the function **cv.imread()** to read an image. The image should be in the working directory or
|
||||
a full path of image should be given.
|
||||
|
||||
Second argument is a flag which specifies the way image should be read.
|
||||
|
||||
- cv.IMREAD_COLOR : Loads a color image. Any transparency of image will be neglected. It is the
|
||||
default flag.
|
||||
- cv.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE : Loads image in grayscale mode
|
||||
- cv.IMREAD_UNCHANGED : Loads image as such including alpha channel
|
||||
|
||||
@note Instead of these three flags, you can simply pass integers 1, 0 or -1 respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
See the code below:
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
import numpy as np
|
||||
import cv2 as cv
|
||||
|
||||
# Load a color image in grayscale
|
||||
img = cv.imread('messi5.jpg',0)
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
|
||||
**warning**
|
||||
|
||||
Even if the image path is wrong, it won't throw any error, but `print img` will give you `None`
|
||||
|
||||
### Display an image
|
||||
|
||||
Use the function **cv.imshow()** to display an image in a window. The window automatically fits to
|
||||
the image size.
|
||||
|
||||
First argument is a window name which is a string. Second argument is our image. You can create as
|
||||
many windows as you wish, but with different window names.
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
cv.imshow('image',img)
|
||||
cv.waitKey(0)
|
||||
cv.destroyAllWindows()
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
A screenshot of the window will look like this (in Fedora-Gnome machine):
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
**cv.waitKey()** is a keyboard binding function. Its argument is the time in milliseconds. The
|
||||
function waits for specified milliseconds for any keyboard event. If you press any key in that time,
|
||||
the program continues. If **0** is passed, it waits indefinitely for a key stroke. It can also be
|
||||
set to detect specific key strokes like, if key a is pressed etc which we will discuss below.
|
||||
|
||||
@note Besides binding keyboard events this function also processes many other GUI events, so you
|
||||
MUST use it to actually display the image.
|
||||
|
||||
**cv.destroyAllWindows()** simply destroys all the windows we created. If you want to destroy any
|
||||
specific window, use the function **cv.destroyWindow()** where you pass the exact window name as
|
||||
the argument.
|
||||
|
||||
@note There is a special case where you can create an empty window and load an image to it later. In
|
||||
that case, you can specify whether the window is resizable or not. It is done with the function
|
||||
**cv.namedWindow()**. By default, the flag is cv.WINDOW_AUTOSIZE. But if you specify the flag to be
|
||||
cv.WINDOW_NORMAL, you can resize window. It will be helpful when an image is too large in dimension
|
||||
and when adding track bars to windows.
|
||||
|
||||
See the code below:
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
cv.namedWindow('image', cv.WINDOW_NORMAL)
|
||||
cv.imshow('image',img)
|
||||
cv.waitKey(0)
|
||||
cv.destroyAllWindows()
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
### Write an image
|
||||
|
||||
Use the function **cv.imwrite()** to save an image.
|
||||
|
||||
First argument is the file name, second argument is the image you want to save.
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
cv.imwrite('messigray.png',img)
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
This will save the image in PNG format in the working directory.
|
||||
|
||||
### Sum it up
|
||||
|
||||
Below program loads an image in grayscale, displays it, saves the image if you press 's' and exit, or
|
||||
simply exits without saving if you press ESC key.
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
import numpy as np
|
||||
import cv2 as cv
|
||||
|
||||
img = cv.imread('messi5.jpg',0)
|
||||
cv.imshow('image',img)
|
||||
k = cv.waitKey(0)
|
||||
if k == 27: # wait for ESC key to exit
|
||||
cv.destroyAllWindows()
|
||||
elif k == ord('s'): # wait for 's' key to save and exit
|
||||
cv.imwrite('messigray.png',img)
|
||||
cv.destroyAllWindows()
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
|
||||
**warning**
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using a 64-bit machine, you will have to modify `k = cv.waitKey(0)` line as follows :
|
||||
`k = cv.waitKey(0) & 0xFF`
|
||||
|
||||
Using Matplotlib
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Matplotlib is a plotting library for Python which gives you wide variety of plotting methods. You
|
||||
will see them in coming articles. Here, you will learn how to display image with Matplotlib. You can
|
||||
zoom images, save them, etc, using Matplotlib.
|
||||
@code{.py}
|
||||
import numpy as np
|
||||
import cv2 as cv
|
||||
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
|
||||
|
||||
img = cv.imread('messi5.jpg',0)
|
||||
plt.imshow(img, cmap = 'gray', interpolation = 'bicubic')
|
||||
plt.xticks([]), plt.yticks([]) # to hide tick values on X and Y axis
|
||||
plt.show()
|
||||
@endcode
|
||||
A screen-shot of the window will look like this :
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
@note Plenty of plotting options are available in Matplotlib. Please refer to Matplotlib docs for more
|
||||
details. Some, we will see on the way.
|
||||
|
||||
__warning__
|
||||
|
||||
Color image loaded by OpenCV is in BGR mode. But Matplotlib displays in RGB mode. So color images
|
||||
will not be displayed correctly in Matplotlib if image is read with OpenCV. Please see the exercises
|
||||
for more details.
