dithord: Bayer ordered dithering crate

This crate provides functionality which allows for monochromatic ordered dithering using a Bayer threshold matrix. This method of dithering is less accurate than others but is fast and visually appealing.

Example of level 2 dithering using this crate:

Currently only monochromatic dithering is supported, but support for arbitrary palettes could be considered as a feature.

Add to Project

cargo add dithord

Usage

This crate provides the OrderedDither trait which is implemented for image::DynamicImage, along with a ThresholdMap struct for generating and storing the Bayer matrix.

Example

use dithord::{ThresholdMap, OrderedDither};
use image::{io::Reader};

fn main() {
    let mut image = Reader::open("example.png").unwrap().decode().unwrap();

    // Generate level 2 (8x8) threshold map
    let map = threshold_map::ThresholdMap::level(2);
    // Apply dither
    image = image.ordered_dither(map);
}
