I read each pixel value from a bitmap image and change all pixel to (0,0,0) or (255,255,255) to create black and white image.How to create new image using this values?


To create new bitmap image,
f=open('bandw.bmp','w')

to print pixel value to image,
print>>f,pix[x,y]

but there was a error message when output image file 'bandw.bmp' was opened,
"Could not load image 'bandw.bmp'.
BMP image has bogus header data"

[mridulpv]

im=Image.open('example.bmp')
width, height=im.size
pix = im.load()
f=open('bandw.bmp','w')
for x in range(width):
	for y in range(height):
		(r,g,B)/>=pix[x,y]
		if r<100 or g<100 or b<100:
			(r,g,B)/>=(0,0,0)
			pix[x,y]=(r,g,B)/>
		else:
			(r,g,B)/>=(255,255,255)
			pix[x,y]=(r,g,B)/>
		print>>f,pix[x,y]

Well, just writing those values to a file does not a BMP make. Specifically, you are neglecting the BMP header which contains information on the file size, image size ,dimensions, color depth, color palate, and other information.

I would recommend using pygame or something like PIL.

For example in pygame you read the original image file with:
pygame.image.load

And then you make a surfarray copy of the loaded image so you can rapidly access the pixels like an array,and change the pixels within it to your new monochromatic values:
pygame.surfarray.array2d

Then you would use convert the surfarray to a surface:
pygame.surfarray.make_surface

and then save the surface to a file with:
pygame.image.save

I believe that PIL can do this as well but i am not familiar with it.

Good luck!
