Image Processing in Java | Set 5 (Colored to Red Green Blue Image Conversion)
We strongly recommend to refer below post as a prerequisite of this.
- Image Processing in Java | Set 1 (Read and Write)
- Image Processing In Java | Set 2 (Get and set Pixels)
In this set we will be converting a colored image to an image with either red effect, green effect or blue effect.
The basic idea is to get the pixel value for each cordinates and then keep the desired resultant color pixel value to be same and set the other two as zero.
Algorithm for converting an colored image to red colored:
- Get the RGB value of the pixel.
- Set the RGB values as follows:
- R: NO CHANGE
- G: Set to 0
- B: Set to 0
- Replace the R, G and B value of the pixel with the values calculated in step 2.
- Repeat Step 1 to Step 3 for each pixels of the image.
Implementation of the above algorithm:
// Java program to demonstrate colored to red colored image conversion import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; public class RedImage { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { BufferedImage img = null ; File f = null ; // read image try { f = new File( "G:\\Inp.jpg" ); img = ImageIO.read(f); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(e); } // get width and height int width = img.getWidth(); int height = img.getHeight(); // convert to red image for ( int y = 0 ; y < height; y++) { for ( int x = 0 ; x < width; x++) { int p = img.getRGB(x,y); int a = (p>> 24 )& 0xff ; int r = (p>> 16 )& 0xff ; // set new RGB // keeping the r value same as in original // image and setting g and b as 0. p = (a<< 24 ) | (r<< 16 ) | ( 0 << 8 ) | 0 ; img.setRGB(x, y, p); } } // write image try { f = new File( "G:\\Out.jpg" ); ImageIO.write(img, "jpg" , f); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(e); } } } |
Note : This code will not run on online IDE as it needs an image on disk.
Output:

Algotithm for converting an colored image to green colored:
- Get the RGB value of the pixel.
- Set the RGB values as follows:
- R: Set to 0
- G: NO CHANGE
- B: Set to 0
- Replace the R, G and B value of the pixel with the values calculated in step 2.
- Repeat Step 1 to Step 3 for each pixels of the image.
Implementation of the above algorithm:
// Java program to demonstrate colored to green coloured // image conversion import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; public class GreenImage { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { BufferedImage img = null ; File f = null ; //read image try { f = new File( "G:\\Inp.jpg" ); img = ImageIO.read(f); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(e); } // get width and height int width = img.getWidth(); int height = img.getHeight(); // convert to green image for ( int y = 0 ; y < height; y++) { for ( int x = 0 ; x < width; x++) { int p = img.getRGB(x,y); int a = (p>> 24 )& 0xff ; int g = (p>> 8 )& 0xff ; // set new RGB // keeping the g value same as in original // image and setting r and b as 0. p = (a<< 24 ) | ( 0 << 16 ) | (g<< 8 ) | 0 ; img.setRGB(x, y, p); } } //write image try { f = new File( "G:\\Out.jpg" ); ImageIO.write(img, "jpg" , f); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(e); } } } |
