1 .TH RCODE2BMP 1 7/25/2019 RADIANCE
2 .SH NAME
3 rcode2bmp - convert identifier, depth, and normal maps to BMP images
4 .SH SYNOPSIS
5 .B rcode2bmp
6 [
7 .B "\-x xres \-y yres"
8 ]
9 .B input1.typ
10 [
11 .B "input2.typ .."

13 .SH DESCRIPTION
14 .I Ra_bmp
15 converts each input map to a suitable visualization as a BMP image.
16 Supported types include Radiance pictures and hyperspectral images,
17 depth maps produced by
18 .I rcode_depth(1),
19 identifier maps from
20 .I rcode_ident(1),
21 and surface normal maps from
22 .I rcode_norm(1).
23 Each input file is identified by the FORMAT string it its header,
24 and if it belongs to one of the supported types, a new file with the
25 same name will be created with its suffix replaced by ".bmp".
26 If a previous BMP file exists with the same name, it will be overwritten.
27 .PP
28 Radiance pictures are tone-mapped as if calling:
29 .IP "" .2i
30 ra_bmp -e auto file.hdr file.bmp
31 .PP
32 If the
33 .I \-x
34 and
35 .I \-y
36 options are given, these will be used as the maximum output image dimensions,
37 and this holds for all input types.
38 .PP
39 Depth maps from
40 .I rcode_depth
41 are processed using
42 .I falsecolor(1)
43 with an appropriate scale and label.
44 .PP
45 Identifier maps from
46 .I rcode_ident
47 are assigned a random color for each identifier.
48 .PP
49 Surface normal maps are processed using an HSV (hue, saturation, value)
50 color space that assigns normal orientation
51 to a hue angle, and saturation runs from 0 when the normal is aligned to
52 the view origin, to maximum saturation at tangential edges.
53 Back-facing normals will be darker -- a normal in the direction opposite
54 to the viewer being pure black.
