Kuler. BitmapData Colour Palette › Extracting Interesting Colour Palettes from an Image. My previous post explained and provided a very simple method for extracting colours from a BitmapData image, by averaging the colours in specific areas. This can have several applications, for example it features in a large amount of prototypes for the update to my Motion Tracking engine. However, if you want to create an accurate and representative colour palette from an image it has several flaws, the most obvious being that by averaging colours, you are actually removing or diluting the striking but perhaps less frequent colours in the image – the very colours which often make an image’s colour palette so exiting!
So, if we’re to extract an exciting and more representative palette from an image, we need a more intelligent algorithm; one which takes into account what makes a colour palette interesting – the contrasts and juxtapositions of colours within the image. After some experimentation I arrived at the following solution. Reducing the colours Indexing the colours. Tipp: Photoshop - Farbfelder in Photoshop löschen - Publish.
