SUMMARY

The discussion centers on manipulating binary greyscale images using C++ arrays and the need for a free application to view .bin files. Users mention Photoimpact 7 as a tool used in school for this purpose. It is established that an external application alone cannot handle the .bin file without the appropriate source code or library. Participants clarify that a library or custom code is necessary to convert bitmap data into a .bin format.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of C++ arrays and data structures
  • Familiarity with binary image formats
  • Knowledge of image manipulation libraries in C++
  • Experience with file I/O operations in C++
NEXT STEPS
  • Research C++ libraries for image manipulation, such as OpenCV
  • Learn about writing and reading binary files in C++
  • Explore bitmap data conversion techniques
  • Investigate alternative image viewing applications for .bin files
USEFUL FOR

Developers and programmers working with image processing in C++, students learning about binary file manipulation, and anyone seeking free tools for viewing .bin image files.

Hi, I am working on binary (greyscale) image manipulation through C++ arrays. At school we use Photoimpact 7 to see the resulting image in .bin format... is there any free application i can use to do the same at home?

anyone can help?
 
Hi Deathfish! :smile:

I don't quite understand your question.
Apparently you have bitmap data in C++ arrays, which you want to dump in a .bin file.
Is that correct?
If so an external application won't be able to do that.
You'd need sourcecode or a library to do that.
Is that what you're looking for?
