BufferedImage Or Pixel Arrays
Jun 30, 2014
I am making a 2d game engine and i was wonder is it better to use BufferedImages and subImages to store/render sprites from sprite sheets or use BufferedImages and store it in a pixel array and then manipulate the pixel array to do what you want.
Basically is loading in BufferedImage and getting the tile of the sprite sheet with subImages better than loading in a BufferedImage and then putting the data in a pixel array and making a new array with the part of the BufferedImage you want.what i have been told the BufferedImage and subImage use more of the graphics card and the pixel array method uses more of the processor.

I'm working on a project based on Roger Alsing's Mona Lisa evolution.
My problem seems to be that when I compare the RGB values of the target image and the randomly generated image, I don't get a representative result of how "close" the two images are.
I load the target image (a 24-bit bitmap) using:
img = ImageIO.read(new File(filePath));
I draw onto a BufferedImage with:
for(int i = 0; i < numPolys*12; i += 12){
p[(int)(i/12)].addPoint(gene[i], gene[i+1]);
p[(int)(i/12)].addPoint(gene[i+2], gene[i+3]);
p[(int)(i/12)].addPoint(gene[i+4], gene[i+5]);
p[(int)(i/12)].addPoint(gene[i+6], gene[i+7]);
Color mycol = new Color(gene[i+8], gene[i+9], gene[i+10], gene[i+11]);
gf.setColor(mycol);
gf.fillPolygon(p[(int)(i/12)]);
}
And I compare the BufferedImage with the target image using:
for(int x = 0; x < inGene.x; ++x){
for(int y = 0; y < inGene.y; ++y){
Color mycol1 = new Color(exp.getRGB(x, y));
Color mycol2 = new Color(inImage.getRGB(x, y));
int delta = mycol1.getRed() - mycol2.getRed();
score += (delta * delta);
delta = mycol1.getGreen() - mycol2.getGreen();
score += (delta * delta);
delta = mycol1.getBlue() - mycol2.getBlue();
score += (delta * delta);
}
}
My problem is that my code runs to a certain point, where it seems no matter what happens to the image, it doesn't seem to get any closer to the target image.

this code that I've constructed?
//Setting the size of the graphics window
final int WINDOW_DIMENSION = 200;
EasyGraphics generate = new EasyGraphics(WINDOW_DIMENSION,WINDOW_DIMENSION);
[Code].....
What I would like to do is to convert the 200x200 picture to a 600x600 graphic window. Currently, my code is structured in such a way that it zooms into the 200x200 display by a factor of 3.

I currently have an on going project of making a gameengine and am currently doing a lighting engine. How to create simple algorithm of explain to me the concepts of creating a algorthm to do a task, like explain how to get the hue saturation and brightness. This preferably needs to be done in java for me to copy the code but as long as i have a concept to go by I could probably translate the code over so it's not to much of a problem.

I have a jpeg that I need to print a border around. My plan was to take the jpeg and throw it on top of a second image that is a few pixels bigger in each direction. Currently, my code prints the image with a white border on the right and bottom sides. Is there a way to print the border on all sides, and maybe even make it a more distinct color? I am not allowed to use graphics. I can only manipulate pixels. Here is the basis of my code.
public class MyArt
{
private Picture image;
/**
* Create an Art object using the jpg or bmp at the indicated location
*/
public MyArt(String filename)
{
image = new Picture(filename);
[code]....

What I am doing is loading a new image from resources in my project, so that I can get the size. Using this, I create a new BufferedImage with those dimensions. The following code is what I am using to take the original BufferedImage, and scale it.
Java Code:
public ImageIcon getBackImage(){
before = new BufferedImage((int)img.getWidth(null), (int)img.getHeight(null), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
int w = before.getWidth();
int h = before.getHeight();
try{
URL url = getClass().getResource("/Blue_Back.png");
before = ImageIO.read(url);
[Code] ......
The scaling seems to be working fine, but what I have noticed is a line of approximately 10 pixels at the top of the image. I took the original image and blew it up to ensure that I wasn't just enlarging undesired portions and this wasn't the case. I then tried to fetch a subImage of the BufferedImage, and that also left the padding at the top. Is there something I am missing that is placing this undesired padding at the top of my bufferedImages ?

I need to write an image to a .png with a 255-color indexed color model. I know usually do it like this: Java Code: BufferedImage img=new BufferedImage(width,height,BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED,model); mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); but that doesn't work with models with 255 colors (as opposed to 256 colors). I'm fairly sure it is the BufferedImage creation that is the problem, as when I call model.getMapSize(), it returns the correct size.
The extra color added to the image's index is 15,15,15.
Should I be something other than a BufferedImage to write the image, or should I be using a different constructor for BufferedImage, or am I doing something else wrong?

I need my Java program (I'm working in Eclipse if it matters) to detect if an image is a portrait or a landscape, but since i am directly downloading them from my camera they only have it written somewhere in metadata, the image width and height is the same for landscape and portrait. I have the rotation code and the rest of the program working, but I need to somehow get a variable (for example integer one) to tell me if it is a portrait or a landscape image. I tried getting to the metadata but my Eclipse decided that import com.drew.metadata.Metadata; cannot be resolved.
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new File(imagePath, imageName)); and after I get the variable "orientation" it looks like this
int orientation = ???;
BufferedImage newImage = oldImage;
if (orientation>1){
newImage = rotate(oldImage);
}

I am new to JavaFX and OpenCV. The Problem is, that JavaFX can't handle Mat objects. First I load an image as a BufferedImage. Then i have to convert this to Mat. Do my image Processing with OpenCV and again convert the result image to a BufferedImage to display in on my UI. Here are the methods for converting Buff to Mat and Mat to Buff I found on the internet:
public static Mat img2Mat(BufferedImage image)
{
byte[] data = ((DataBufferByte) image.getRaster().getDataBuffer()).getData();
Mat mat = new Mat(image.getHeight(), image.getWidth(), CvType.CV_8UC3);
mat.put(0, 0, data);
return mat;
[Code] ....
Next I do some OpenCV stuff:
public static BufferedImage hello(BufferedImage img) {
Mat source = img2Mat(img); //Convert Buff to Mat
BufferedImage outImg = null;
try{
System.loadLibrary( Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME );
[Code] ....
Finally I call the hello method in my controller:
void menuItemTestFired(ActionEvent event) {
try {
result = ImageProc.hallo(bImage);//bImage is an image I've loaded before.
imageView.setImage(SwingFXUtils.toFXImage(result, null));
[Code] .....
Unfortunately I get a lot of errors. Here are the first one:
Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: org.opencv.core.Mat.n_Mat(III)J
at org.opencv.core.Mat.n_Mat(Native Method)
at org.opencv.core.Mat.<init>(Mat.java:471)
[Code] ....
Can't figure out why this doesn't work. -.-

So i wanted to try something new like find an image within an image. So for my "find" method I would like to take an image and use it to scan and compare sum of absolute differences with the bigger image. So that the smallest SAD would be the exact image that I am using to scan. What I am thinking is to put each pixel value of both images into two separate arrays and compare them via Math.abs(image1[i][j]-image2[i][j]); . My only problem is that I do not know how to put each pixel value into an array.
Also, If I only want to compare just the green in the picture. I saw that the Pixel class has a getGreen(); method. If I want to find the SAD of the green, would Math.abs(image1.getGreen()-image2.getGreen()); work? I was planning to have 2 nested loops running through each column and row for each image and just find the SAD of the green value.

I am working on a project using pictures and am having some trouble. My assignment is to take a jpeg, and reflect it(over an imaginary x-axis so to speak). As this is my first time working with images, I am very lost. My approach was to take "pixel 0" and have it swap places with "pixel max". Theoretically, I believe I would only need to do this for the first 50% of the pixels, as each flip works on 2 opposite pixels. With my code thus far (the reflect() method), I print the left half of the image. Note: I must use pixel manipulation. I cannot use graphics.
public class MyArt
{
private Picture image;
/**
* Create an Art object using the jpg or bmp at the indicated location
*/
public MyArt(String filename)
{
image = new Picture(filename);

As implied by the title, when I am rendering images of the type "BufferedImage" unto a Swing application, the images' pixels are not consistent in size. Some might be larger than other, and some might be smaller than other.
Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about (you might need to zoom in a bit because the image is so small): [URL] ....
And here is also some code for you. The images are actually from a sprite sheet, which I first load in its entirety and then split up in an array.
Java Code:
public static BufferedImage sprites[];
...
public void loadSprites(){
try{
BufferedImage bigImage = ImageIO.read(new File("SOURCE/BLA/BLA/THIS/IS/ACTUALLY/NOT/THE/REAL/SOURCE/IN/CASE/YOU'RE/WONDERING/I/JUST/DON'T/WANT/YOU/TO/FIND/ME/AND/RAPE/ME"));
sprites = new BufferedImage[16 * 16];
[Code] ....
So, how do I make the pixels equally small?

I've been working my way through a tutorial to build a simple 2D tile-based engine that also allows the code to manipulate the colour of pixels on the screen based on a monochrome map read from a file. I've got the code right line for line, but I seem to have a bug when it comes to draw to the screen! At regular intervals, despite what is held in the pixel array of ints (which I have confirmed to be correct when debugging), I get the same row of pixels being draw twice in a row. I figured there was some loop issue somewhere, but after attempting to debug this for some time, I haven't come up with the answer.
Original tilesheet:As rendered:
Game.java:
package igg.engine.game;
import igg.engine.game.gfx.Screen;
import igg.engine.game.gfx.SpriteSheet;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Canvas;
import java.awt.Color;

I mainly would like to know is a int[4][4] or a int [4*4] is more efficient to use. Which takes more storage? Which requires more to process? that kind of stuff.

I'm wonder about the issue of constructor for arrays. Let say I have a class tablica, and one component int[] tab. If I get it right until now tab is nothing more than empty reference to some unexisting array?
import java.util.Random;
class tablica{
int[] tab;
tablica (){ // i wish it was constructor
[code]....
Then, I'm trying to build the constructor for class tablica. What can be the parameter of such constructor? Is it fields of array? It is simple forf for basic variable
- I liken values defined in constructor with those global defined in class. But how to do it with array component tab.
If I create array object in main method then how can I use this constructor?

In the program below I populated three arrays: student id, name, and GPA. The findStudent() method attempts to match users input with the input stored in the studentID array using an if/ else statement. When I use the if/ else statement the else always executes regardless if the IDs match? I am trying to get JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Incorrect entry"); to print only if the IDs don't match.
Java Code:
//FILE: StudentIDArray.java
import javax.swing.*; //Used for the JOption dialog boxes
import java.util.*; //Used for Scanner input
public class StudentIDArray {
boolean nameFound = true;
final int numOfElements = 2; //Final int to control to loop for data

I'm working on a side project, which will eventually hopefully be a Pokedex, and I've just been going to it at the end of every chapter and using the stuff I've learned to work on it.So I just read chapter 3, which is all about variables and teaches how to use arrays.
my question is, does an array have to be declared inside a method? Because I'm trying to create an array inside a class without any methods and without the main, and I continuously get errors. Here's a quick working of my code that won't compile.
class blah {
blah a[] = new blah[7];
a[0] = new blah();
}
The error message focuses on a[0] = new blah(); Telling me the 0 should be a ], the = is an illegal start of type, so on and so forth. The program compiles completely fine if it's within a method, like this:
class blah {
void a() {
blah a[] = new blah[7];
a[0] = new blah();
}
}
Or if I have public static void main (String[]args); But I'm trying to practice working outside of main.So does an array have to be within a method,

I have created a class and a matrix of doubles (or at least, I think I have, that's partly what I want to verify).I need to return the values of the array,Here is my class:
public class example{
double[][] Position=new double[2][11];
double calculate(){
for (int time=0;time<=10;time=time+1){
Position[1][time]=time;
Position[2][time]=time+1;
double A=Position[2][time];
return A;
}
}
}
I am getting the error: "This method must return a result of type double", though to me it looks like I am returning double (A).

I am having trouble conceptualizing how to fill arrays. I understand that I can declare one and number it's elements, and it stores values of a certain data types. I don't really understand beyond that. Like how I would fill and use data in it.
I can be more specific with an assignment I have for school, but need to get started understanding how to fill arrays with data and then how to use that data.

So im making this ghost game where i display an 8x8 filled with 0s and a randomly generator five 1s in there I can get it to display 0s and add 1s, however sometimes the 1s that are randomly generated sometimes go on the same spot making it look like there are only four 1s. How would i go about fixing that?
package Grade12;
import java.util.Random;
public class Ghost {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random generator = new Random();
int gameboard [][] = new int [8][8];
int randomx, randomy, counter = 0, sum = 0;
for(int row = 0; row < 8; row++){
for(int col = 0; col < 8; col++){
(gameboard[row][col]) = 0;

The assignment goes like this...Write a Payroll class that uses the following arrays as fields:
employeeID - An array of seven integers to hold employee identification numbers. The array should be initialized with the following numbers:
5658845452012578951228777541
845127713028507580489
hours - An array of seven integers to hold the number of hours worked by each employee.payRate - An array of seven doubles to hold each employee's hourly pay rate.wages - An array of seven doubles to hold each employee's gross wages.The class should relate the data in each array through the subscripts.
For example, the number in element 0 of the hours array should be the number of hours worked by the employee whose identification number is stored in element 0 of the employeeID array. That same employee's pay rate should be stored in element 0 of the payRate array. In addition to the appropriate accessor and mutator methods, the class should have a method that accepts an employee's identification number as an argument and returns the gross pay for that employee.Demonstrate the class in a complete program that displays each employee number and asks the user to enter that employee's hours and pay rate. It should then display each employee's identification number and gross wages.Input Validation: Do not accept negative values for hours or numbers less than 6.0 for a pay rate.
My problem with this program is that everytime I try to print the employee ID's or the wages, I get hashcode or something like it (#[I1a77cdc or something like that). I tried using the toString method, but it lists all of the values, when I'm trying to display one at a time. Here is the code for the class:
// moduleArray class
public class moduleArray {
final int NUM_EMPLOYEES = 7;
int[] employeeID = {5658845, 4520125, 7895122, 8777541, 8451277, 1302850, 7580489};
int[] hours = new int[NUM_EMPLOYEES];
[code]...
This is the demo program to list the ID's. I've been messing with it for some time, and right now I just want it to display values.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class moduleArrayDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
final int NUM_EMPLOYEES = 7;
int[] ID = new int[NUM_EMPLOYEES];

Okay, so the assignment was creating a word search for the given array. I've created all the code necessary, but I've ran into trouble. This problem occurs with the Up-Forward, Up-Backward, Down-Forward, and Down-Backward sections. If I only set one of these to run, it works. But if I have all 4 set at the same time, it errors out on the first one that runs.

The assignment was to create 3 parallel arrays to make a student database.The first array will contain 4 digit student id's, the second a string array with student names, and the third array is student gpa's. The user is to receive a dialog box asking to enter the student id, and if the id is correct the user is to see the student name and grade. If the user input does not match any value in the student id array, the user is to receive a message stating invalid id. Here is the code I have so far.
For some reason no matter what the user enters, the information for the last array entry is displayed.
public class parallelStudent

public static int sequentialSearch(int[] array, int value)
{
int index; //loop control variable
int element; //element the value is found at
boolean found; //flag indicating search results
