int gp_ahd_decode	(	unsigned char *	input,
		int	w,
		int	h,
		unsigned char *	output,
		BayerTile	tile
	)

Convert a bayer raster style image to a RGB raster.

Parameters

input	the bayer CCD array as linear input
w	width of the above array
h	height of the above array
output	RGB output array (linear, 3 bytes of R,G,B for every pixel)
tile	how the 2x2 bayer array is layed out

A regular CCD uses a raster of 2 green, 1 blue and 1 red components to cover a 2x2 pixel area. The camera or the driver then interpolates a 2x2 RGB pixel set out of this data.

This function expands and interpolates the bayer array to 3 times larger bitmap with RGB values interpolated. It does the same job as gp_bayer_decode() but it calls gp_ahd_interpolate() instead of calling gp_bayer_interpolate(). Use this instead of gp_bayer_decode() if you want to use or to test AHD interpolation in a camera library.

Returns: a gphoto error code

int gp_ahd_interpolate	(	unsigned char *	image,
		int	w,
		int	h,
		BayerTile	tile
	)

Interpolate a expanded bayer array into an RGB image.

Parameters

image	the linear RGB array as both input and output
w	width of the above array
h	height of the above array
tile	how the 2x2 bayer array is layed out

This function interpolates a bayer array which has been pre-expanded by gp_bayer_expand() to an RGB image. It applies the method of adaptive homogeneity-directed demosaicing.

Returns: a gphoto error code

: In outline, the interpolation algorithm used here does the following:

: In principle, the first thing which is done is to split off from the image two copies. In one of these, interpolation will be done in the vertical direction only, and in the other copy only in the horizontal direction. "Cross-color" data is used throughout, on the principle that it can be used as a corrector for brightness even if it is derived from the "wrong" color. Finally, at each pixel there is a choice criterion to decide whether to use the result of the vertical interpolation, the horizontal interpolation, or an average of the two.

: Memory use and speed are optimized by using two sliding windows, one for the vertical interpolation and the other for the horizontal interpolation instead of using two copies of the entire input image. The nterpolation and the choice algorithm are then implemented entirely within these windows, too. When this has been done, a completed row is written back to the image. Then the windows are moved, and the process repeats.
