Proyecto Ascii Art (metodo de Black/white)

Por jc mouse martes, junio 28, 2011

El Ascii Art o Arte Ascii, consiste en realizar dibujos con los caracteres ASCII (Código Americano Estándar de Intercambio de Información), y en la actualidad su uso ya es bastante conocido sobre todo en logos de compañias, blogs, foros y redes sociales como facebook utilizados como adornos.

Existen varias formas de realizar este Ascii-Art, por ejemplo:

  • Ascii Art de imagenes en Blanco y Negro
  • Acii Art de imagenes en escala de grises
  • Acii Art de los bordes de una imagen

Empezaremos por el algoritmo más sencillo, que es el Ascii Art de una imagen en blanco y negro.

¿Como funciona?

Dada una imagen en blanco y negro, se van tomando 4 pixeles de 2×2 y se van comparando de acuerdo a un patron previamente definido (Imagen 1), se toman los caracteres ASCII que se asemejen más a la forma que tienen los 4 pixeles extraidos, esto para que la imagen una vez formada, sea lo mas posible fiel a la original.
(Imagen 1)
Los pixeles se iran leyendo fila por fila, saltandose una linea de pixeles, esto para que la imagen resultante no se vea demasiado alargada, las columnas se leen de 2 en 2. La iamgen resultante, dependera tambien del tipo de caracter con el que se imprima, debe escogerse un caracter lo mas cuadrado posible, por ejemplo «Lucida Console».

Cada 4 pixeles leidos, corresponden a un caracter ascii y estos seran unidos a una cadena de texto, cuando se llegue al final de una columna, debe agregarse un «salto de carro» (\n) y continuarse con la siguiente hilera.

La siguiente clase i2ascii.java, resume toda la explicacion anterior.El constrcutor de la clase, lee una imagen en disco y la asigna a una clase de tipo BufferedImage, ademas la convierte en una imagen en blanco/negro utilizando un metodo que se vio en un post anterior (Imagen en blanco y Negro en Java), el metodo encargado de transformar esa imagen a Ascii-Art es ConvertToAscii() el cual devuelve en un String la imagen ya procesada.

}

Implementar esta clase en una interfaz, es sencilla asi que no creo que sea necesario mostrar como se hace esto. Al ser este un algoritmo simple y utlizar imagenes en blanco y negro, las imagenes resultantes, tambien seran sencillas, es por eso que es mucho mejor utilizar esta tecnica Blanco/Negro en imagenes simples como logotipos o letras.
