See for instance http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/sensors.htm .

You mean a simple demosaicing (debayering) technique? Well, a trivial one like "nearest neighbour" for the missing colour channels of each pixel is probably "simple", but it isn't good qualitywise. High-quality demosaicing algorithms are not simple. See for instance http://www.cs.pdx.edu/~cklin/demosaic/ . The Open Source dcraw program (http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/dcraw/) uses an algorithm called "Interpolation using a Threshold-based variable number of gradients" described in http://www-ise.stanford.edu/~tingchen/algodep/vargra.html --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
