How to grab pixels of a rectangle - java

How to grab pixels of a rectangle and how to get color of grabbed pixels in Java...

(Assuming you want to grab pixels of a rectangle in an existing Image), have a look at the PixelGrabber class. The example in the Javadocs shows how to get the color of each grabbed pixel.

Creating image of Triangle with given co-ordinates

I want to image file containing polygon with given coordinates with white color inside the polygon and black color outside of given size. Size of the image and co-ordinates of the polygon are given. How can I write java code to output the image file. Will there be any inbuilt functions? Thank you in advance.
Create a Polygon and use the contains(int x, int y) inside a loop to figure out which pixels should be white and which should be black. Create a BufferedImage, and use createGraphics() to draw the correct colors to the image. Finally, check How to save a BufferedImage as a File for help with outputting the image file.

Create a Dicom image

I am currently working with a DICOM project in java. I am calculating the dicom values such as depth, off-axis ratio, width and height. I want to create a sample image with the calculated width and height. I should be a gray scale image, with varying densities of gray color in appropriate area. I have created a sample image with imagemagick, using concentric circles. Bit am not getting the exact image. It does not look like an actual dicom image. The variation of gray color does not have a linear behavior. Sample image is attached. Please suggest any other method to create dicom image. The density values are available in a list. depending upon the distance from the center, the gray color also changes according to the density value provided.
Pixel Data or image in DICOM data set is always rectangular and image is described using Rows (0028, 0010) and Columns (0028, 0011) attributes. So the best way to implement this is to draw your circular image on a rectangular background. Fill the background with a color that is not present in your image. Use the Pixel Padding Value (0028,0120) to specify the color used to pad grayscale images (those with a Photometric Interpretation of MONOCHROME1 or MONOCHROME2) to rectangular format.
If you do not have any color to spare (with-in the bit stored), you can add Overlay Plane or Display Shutter to the data set to mask the area that is not part of image.

Simple image rotation

I am making a game in Java. I made a planet seen from outer space and I want to make it appear like the planet is slowly rotating. But I don't know how to rotate a image. I need a simple command that rotates my image 1 degree around its own center once. Any help?
This is what I want to do:
Image
Take a look at these tutorials:
Java2D: Have Fun With Affine Transform
Coordinate Translations and Rotations: Example Code
Transforming Shapes, Text, and Images
What you are describing is not rotating an image, but changing an image to represent a 3D rotation of the object in the image.
Ideally you wouldn't be working with this as an image but rather as a 3D object with a different camera angle. Then you would simply rotate the camera around the object and display the resulting image to the user.
However if you're set on doing this as an image, then you need to create a different images representing various states of rotation of your planet and have a separate thread that would replace the displayed image with the next one in sequence, at repeated intervals. Search the web for "java image animation" - there are plenty of tutorials on how to do this.
If you want to rotate an image in 2d space, you can use something like this:
Image image = ...
Graphics2D g2d = ...; //
g2d.translate(170, 0); // If needed
g2d.rotate(1); // Rotate the image by 1 radian
//or g2d.rotate(180.0/3.14); to rotate by 1 degree
g2d.drawImage(image, 0, 0, 200, 200, observer);

How to get the colour of a applet viewer pixel in Java?

I have drawn any picture, used Graphics 2D. How do I get the colour of a pixel at x, y? getPixelColor don't work, because this method get pixel from screen, not applet viewer coordinates.
Draw the picture to the Graphics of a BufferedImage
Draw the image to the Graphics2D.
To get the color of any pixel, call BufferedImage.getRGB(x,y) or variants (check the docs.).

Why does my smudge image algorithm make the image darker?

I'm trying to write a graphical effect where a circle moves around an image smudging the image as it goes (like the way the smudge tool in Gimp or Photoshop would work). The basic algorithm I'm using is:
the circle moves from position A to position B on the bitmap
copy a circle of pixels from position A into a temporary bitmap
draw this circle of pixels from the temporary bitmap to position B using alpha of about 50%.
This works fine and looks like what I would expect, where the image will look like it's getting smudged if the circle moves 1 pixel at a time over the image.
I now want to add some texture to the smudge effect. I have a bitmap that contains a picture of a paint blob. The algorithm from the above is modified to the following so the smudge takes the shape of this paint blob:
as before
replace the temporary bitmap pixels with the paint blob texture then copy the circle of pixels from position A into the temporary bitmap but only keep the pixels that match up against paint blob pixels (i.e. use Porter-Duff "source in destination" mode when drawing the circle into the temporary bitmap).
as before
This almost works and it looks like it's fine initially but gradually the smudging makes the colors in my image darker! If the circle passes over the same area several times, the colors eventually change to black. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
I've implemented the above in Android. I happened upon this post about bitmaps in Android (like my paint blob texture) being loaded with "premultiplied alpha", where the author says it caused his images to become darker because of it:
http://www.kittehface.com/2010/06/androidbitmap-and-premultiplied-alpha.html
I suspect I'm suffering from a similar problem but I don't understand what's going on well enough and don't know how to fix it. Does anyone have hints at what might be going on?
Well from first glance the reason the image is getting darker is because #3 in the first three steps. You overlaying a pixel over an existing pixel at 50%. You might want to consider using the mean of the original pixel value and the new pixel value. You might want to research some blurring algorithms.
