How to resize an image with OpenCV2.0 and Python2.6

If you wish to use CV2, you need to use the resize function. For example, this will resize both axes by half: small = cv2.resize(image, (0,0), fx=0.5, fy=0.5) and this will resize the image to have 100 cols (width) and 50 rows (height): resized_image = cv2.resize(image, (100, 50)) Another option is to use scipy module, … Read more

How to merge a transparent png image with another image using PIL

from PIL import Image background = Image.open(“test1.png”) foreground = Image.open(“test2.png”) background.paste(foreground, (0, 0), foreground) background.show() First parameter to .paste() is the image to paste.

Downloading images with node.js [closed]

I’d suggest using the request module. Downloading a file is as simple as the following code: var fs = require(‘fs’), request = require(‘request’); var download = function(uri, filename, callback){ request.head(uri, function(err, res, body){ console.log(‘content-type:’, res.headers[‘content-type’]); console.log(‘content-length:’, res.headers[‘content-length’]); request(uri).pipe(fs.createWriteStream(filename)).on(‘close’, callback); }); }; download(‘https://www.google.com/images/srpr/logo3w.png’, ‘google.png’, function(){ console.log(‘done’); });

Resize a large bitmap file to scaled output file on Android

No. I’d love for someone to correct me, but I accepted the load/resize approach you tried as a compromise. Here are the steps for anyone browsing: Calculate the maximum possible inSampleSize that still yields an image larger than your target. Load the image using BitmapFactory.decodeFile(file, options), passing inSampleSize as an option. Resize to the desired … Read more

How can I save a base64-encoded image to disk?

I think you are converting the data a bit more than you need to. Once you create the buffer with the proper encoding, you just need to write the buffer to the file. var base64Data = req.rawBody.replace(/^data:image\/png;base64,/, “”); require(“fs”).writeFile(“out.png”, base64Data, ‘base64′, function(err) { console.log(err); }); new Buffer(…, ‘base64’) will convert the input string to a … Read more

Storing images in SQL Server?

There’s a really good paper by Microsoft Research called To Blob or Not To Blob. Their conclusion after a large number of performance tests and analysis is this: if your pictures or document are typically below 256KB in size, storing them in a database VARBINARY column is more efficient if your pictures or document are … Read more
