Python USES pil module to convert raw images into PNG images

This article illustrates python's method of converting raw images to PNG images through the pil module. Share with you for your reference. Specific analysis is as follows:

Python converts raw images to PNG images through the pil module, which includes the fromstring function that reads the images in the specified mode and then saves them.

rawData = open("foo.raw" 'rb').read()
imgSize = (x,y)
# Use the PIL raw decoder to read the data.
# the 'F;16' informs the raw decoder that we are reading 
# a little endian, unsigned integer 16 bit data.
img = Image.fromstring('L', imgSize, rawData, 'raw', 'F;16')
img.save("foo.png")

The first argument to the image.fromstring function has the following meaning

1 (1-bit pixels, black and white, stored with one pixel per byte)
L (8-bit pixels, black and white)
P (8-bit pixels, mapped to any other mode using a colour palette)
RGB (3x8-bit pixels, true colour)
RGBA (4x8-bit pixels, true colour with transparency mask)
CMYK (4x8-bit pixels, colour separation)
YCbCr (3x8-bit pixels, colour video format)
I (32-bit signed integer pixels)
F (32-bit floating point pixels)

I hope this article has helped you with your Python programming.
