ImageAdd

ImageAdd
adds an amount x to each channel value in image.
ImageAdd
gives an image in which each pixel is the sum of the corresponding pixels in and .
MORE INFORMATION
  • The image returned by ImageAdd has the same dimensions as image.
  • If the image dimensions are different, ImageAdd adds at the center of .
  • If or is a single-channel image, its values are added to the values in each channel of the other image in ImageAdd.
  • If and are both multichannel images, the values in each channel are added separately.
  • In ImageAdd, the number x is normally in the range 0 to 1.
  • ImageAdd gives an image with the same underlying data type as image, clipping or truncating values if necessary.
  • ImageAdd gives an image with the largest type of either or , clipping or truncating values if necessary.
  • For binary images, ImageAdd effectively finds the logical OR of pixel values.
