image_to_wave: Convert images into wave objects

In warbleR: Streamline Bioacoustic Analysis

Convert images into wave objects

Description

image_to_wave converts images in 'png' format into wave objects using the inverse Fourier transformation

Usage

image_to_wave(
  file,
  duration = 1,
  samp.rate = 44.1,
  bit.depth = 16,
  flim = c(0, samp.rate/2),
  plot = TRUE
)

Arguments

file	Character with the name of image file to be converted. File must be in 'png' format.
duration	duration of the output wave object (in s).
samp.rate	Numeric vector of length 1 indicating the sampling rate of the output wave object (in kHz). Default is 44.1.
bit.depth	Numeric vector of length 1 with the dynamic interval (i.e. bit depth) for output files. Default is 16.
flim	Numeric vector of length 2 indicating the highest and lowest frequency limits (kHz) in which the image would be located. Default is c(0, samp.rate / 2).
plot	Logical argument to control if image is plotted after being imported into R.

Details

This function converts images in 'png' format into wave objects using the inverse Fourier transformation.

Value

A single wave object.

Examples

### create image with text to use in the spectrogram
# remove margins of plot
par(mar = rep(0, 4))

# empty plot
plot(0, type = "n", axes = FALSE, ann = FALSE, xlim = c(0, 1), ylim = c(0, 1))

# text to include
text <- " warbleR "

# add text
text(x = 0.5, y = 0.5, labels = text, cex = 11, font = 1)

# save image in temporary directory
dev2bitmap(file.path(tempdir(), "temp-img.png"), type = "pngmono", res = 30)

# read it
wv <- image_to_wave(file = file.path(tempdir(), "temp-img.png"), plot = TRUE, flim = c(1, 12))

# output wave object
# wv

## plot it
# reset margins
par(mar = c(5, 4, 4, 2) + 0.1)

# plot spectrogram
# spectro(wave = wv, scale = FALSE, collevels = seq(-30, 0, 5),
# palette = reverse.terrain.colors, ovlp = 90, grid = FALSE, flim = c(2, 11))
