Description

Dithering is a type of half tone thresholding where greyscale (or RGB channel) intensity is converted into a local density of binary pixels. This is ideal for rendering images in devices with a binary output such as printers (greyscale) or with a small number of colours (colour dithering). The following methods have been implemented (there are several more):

  • Floyd-Steinberg
  • Atkinson
  • Jarvis-Judice-Ninke
  • Stucki
  • Bayer_2x2
  • Bayer_4x4
  • Bayer_8x8
  • Clustered_4x4
  • Random

Here is a good text explaining various dithering algorithm.
