Example: Zooming and Scaling

Use the zoom function to zoom or scale an image or a matrix.

For information on using this example, refer to About Image Processing Examples.

Zooming an Image

1. Read in an image:

(pattern.bmp)

2. Set the horizontal and vertical scales then apply the zoom function to the image:

(pattern_z1.bmp)

The zooming results in halving the image width and doubling its height.

Zooming a Matrix

1. Define a 3 x 4 matrix, and then use an equation to set the value of its elements:

2. Evaluate the matrix:
