How to use the command pampop9 (with examples)
The pampop9 command is used to simulate a multi-lens camera such as the Pop9. It can tile an input image by a specified number of times and adjust the offset between each tile.
Use case 1: Tile an input image with specified dimensions and offsets
Code:
pampop9 path/to/input.pam xtiles ytiles xdelta ydelta > path/to/output.pam
Motivation: This use case is helpful when you want to create a tiled version of an image, such as creating a photo collage or a mosaic.
Explanation:
- pampop9: The command itself.
- path/to/input.pam: The path to the input image.
- xtiles: The number of times the image should be tiled horizontally.
- ytiles: The number of times the image should be tiled vertically.
- xdelta: The offset between each horizontal tile.
- ydelta: The offset between each vertical tile.
- > path/to/output.pam: Redirects the output to the specified file path.
Example output:
If we run pampop9 image.pam 2 2 20 10 > output.pam
, it will tile the image image.pam
by 2 times horizontally and vertically with an x offset of 20 and a y offset of 10. The resulting tiled image will be saved as output.pam
.
Conclusion:
The pampop9 command is a useful tool for simulating a multi-lens camera effect and creating tiled images. By specifying the dimensions and offsets, you can achieve various creative effects in your images.
