How to Binarize TGA Files Using Java

The invention of color film marked a significant milestone in the realm of photography. However, classical photography is inherently linked to black and white imagery. Despite the extensive technical capabilities of cameras to capture the full spectrum of colors, many individuals opt for monochrome, transforming their pictures into black and white. In such instances, a binarization function comes into play, converting all pixels into binary values: "0" for white and "1" for black. In other scenarios, this conversion isn’t driven by artistic choices but practical ones, like preparing black and white illustrations for printing in books or newspapers. Using the Java graphics library, you can designate a pixel brightness threshold. Pixels with brightness values below this threshold will become black, while those above it will become white. Alternatively, you can employ an adaptive binarization method that considers the pixel values in the surrounding area. This approach results in smoother transitions between color boundaries in the resulting black and white image. In order to Binarize TGA files, we’ll use Aspose.Imaging for Java API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use image manipulation and conversion API for Java platform. You can download its latest version directly from Maven and install it within your Maven-based project by adding the following configurations to the pom.xml.

Steps to Binarize TGA via Java

You need the aspose-imaging-version-jdk16.jar to try the following workflow in your own environment.

  • load TGA files with Image.Load method;
  • binarize image;
  • save binarized image to disc in the supported by Aspose.Imaging format.

System Requirements

Aspose.Imaging for Java is supported on all major operating systems. Just make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

  • JDK 1.6 or higher is installed.

  • About Aspose.Imaging for Java API

    Aspose.Imaging API is an image processing solution to create, modify, draw or convert images (photos) within applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), modifications such as drawing, working with graphic primitives, transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, binarization, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, dithering, masking, deskewing), and memory optimization strategies. It’s a standalone library and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with native APIs within projects. These are 100% private on-premise APIs and images are processed at your servers.

    TGA What is TGA File Format

    Truevision TGA, often referred to as TARGA, is a raster graphics file format created by Truevision Inc. (now part of Avid Technology). It was the native format of TARGA and VISTA boards, which were the first graphic cards for IBM-compatible PCs to support Highcolor/truecolor display.
