My e-paper display drivers for IoT are now best of class.
I support simulated grayscale for black and white e-paper, and nearest color matching for color e-paper.
The grayscale simulation is done through dithering.
That way you can load JPEGs into the things and they look reasonable.
I don't support color dithering yet because every technique I've tried is far too expensive both in terms of space and time requirements.
Still, no other drivers for IoT that I'm aware of support these features.
This is super cool.

Cervantes' Don Quixote renamed (reimagined as a warhorse fit for his new identity) the worn-out horse he rode in his knight-errant adventures 'Rocinante' [1] ... today, that name came to mind as i wrestled with the DataGridView control whose endless quirks, and gargantuan [2] smorgasbord of settings, properties, and, events, induce vertigo, or worse ...
Each of the old WinForm controls, back in the neolithic-period wrappers around a COM core, is a little universe of idiosyncrasies only partially connected to its housemates by semantic consistencies.
Perhaps the flip-side of their virtual virtue is that their limitations catalyzed a thriving 3rd. party controls market ? Cue: "Just enough for the City" [^]. And, truth be told, the expensive suites from Telerik, et. al., also have very steep learning curves.
But, try as i might, i never succeeded in imagining myself transformed from code-drudge to knight 
Usual disclaimer: cup is half-full.

[1] A complex pun [^] ... also the name of the Martian ship in 'The Expanse.' My enthusiasm for the Quixote has been magnified by Edith Grossman's modern translation (see what A.S. Byatt says about that: [^]). fyi: there is an audiobook version of Grossman's translation read by the talented George Guidall: [^].
[2] If you read the story of Gargantua's birth from the ear of Madam Gargamelle [^] ... after you throw-up, you may appreciate the depth of queasiness i imply here.

Now just hold up a second. Of all the folks on CP, Bill is our resident literati (literatus?). Anyway, he's good with words.
If he omits an adverbBillWoodruff should have wrote: also the name of the originally Martian ship in 'The Expanse'
we should give him the benefit of the doubt.

If you ever wondered why your nose is located in the middle of your face, it's because it's your scenter.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Is the processor just that slow, or do you think that profiling your code might uncover things that could be sped up to reach an acceptable level?
|

It's difficult to profile because it's cross compiled to run on an IoT device, where I don't have access to profiling.
I *can* do it but it involves setting up a lot of test code in order to use GFX from my PC.
Besides, I know where it's taking the time, and there's not much I can do about it.
The source machine is running at between 160MHz and 240MHz and the operation cannot be readily parallelized without using RAM i don't have.
Algorithmically, I've optimized it about as much as I can. The mixing plan for finding two dither colors is like O(log N) which isn't that bad. The problem is I have to do it for 200x200 pixels. And for my color display I have to do it twice per frame because it's a 3 color display organized in two monochrome planes - one white, and one red, and I don't have the RAM to store the frame between rendering the two planes.
On a superscalar PC running at GHz speeds this is no problem, and I *thought* it shouldn't be a problem even for this machine, but I guess I dramatically underestimated the time it takes this algorithm to run.
I actually have two algos. The first one is similar to the one used by photoshop (but different enough that it avoids patent infringement)
The second one is a much faster, simpler algorithm.
Color dithers are apparently not as easy as I thought.

I knew nothing of dithering, so I just read about it. Interesting. Eventually you'll be a numerical analysis weenie. 
It also means that what I was going to ask, namely whether you could cache frequently used results, seems to make no sense.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah. My current plan is to stick with nearest matching color only for color displays. I'm going to try dithering once again on black and white since those algorithms run much faster.
Edit: Black and white dithering is fast fast fast, so I've added support for it to b&w e-paper displays. I don't do it for monochrome displays yet, and I'm not sure I will since they can update in real time and dithering interferes with that, but since you can turn it off maybe I'll add support for it. I only do nearest color matching for color e-ink displays. The color dithering as I said, was just too expensive.

If it was closer to performing like I need I'd twiddle with optimizations like this, but this sort of improvement isn't going to change the code from taking minutes to taking seconds, and that's what I need.
I've basically abandoned color dithering for this project.

I am surprised it is that bad. I thought something like the ESP32 at 240Mhz would do a Floyd-Steinberg reasonable well, at least keeping up with the 680x0's and 86x86's I used to run Floyd-Steinberg on 25 odd years ago. I know it is a different architecture, but it is also a 200Mhz speed advantage. But maybe it was just a lot slower than I recall it - back then we where amazed it displayed something at all. I am quite sure it never took a minute though - but if it was ½ or 20 seconds who knows.
I wonder if it is memory access or something slowing it down.
Takes ages to develop these kind of things though. As soon as it displays something, you loose the next couple of hours looking at it before moving on.

I can't do floyd steinberg because of the memory requirements.
I do a similar style as Thomas Knoll's adobe photoshop grid dithering method for my "slow" dithering, and an optimized Yliluoma algorithm for my "fast" dithering. Both are far too slow.

Also if you were doing color dithering there are much faster algos you can use when simply simulating a higher bit depth, but I actually have to do color matching to a palette.
Here's how I have to choose two colors to blend:
template<typename PaletteType>
gfx_result dither_mixing_plan_fast(const PaletteType* palette, typename PaletteType::mapped_pixel_type color, dither_mixing_plan_data_fast* plan) {
gfx_result rr ;
if(nullptr==plan || nullptr==palette) {
return gfx_result::invalid_argument;
}
rgb_pixel<24> rgb888;
rr = convert(color,&rgb888);
if(gfx_result::success!=rr) {
return rr;
}
const unsigned r= rgb888.template channel<channel_name::R>(),
g=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::G>(),
b=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::B>();
*plan = { {0,0}, 0.5 };
double least_penalty = 1e99;
for(unsigned index1 = 0; index1 < 16; ++index1)
for(unsigned index2 = index1; index2 < 16; ++index2)
{
typename PaletteType::mapped_pixel_type mpx1;
rr=palette->map(typename PaletteType::pixel_type(index1),&mpx1);
if(gfx_result::success!=rr) {
return rr;
}
typename PaletteType::mapped_pixel_type mpx2;
rr=palette->map(typename PaletteType::pixel_type(index2),&mpx1);
if(gfx_result::success!=rr) {
return rr;
}
rr = convert(mpx1,&rgb888);
if(gfx_result::success!=rr) {
return rr;
}
unsigned r1= rgb888.template channel<channel_name::R>(),
g1=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::G>(),
b1=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::B>();
rr = convert(mpx2,&rgb888);
if(gfx_result::success!=rr) {
return rr;
}
unsigned r2= rgb888.template channel<channel_name::R>(),
g2=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::G>(),
b2=rgb888.template channel<channel_name::B>();
int ratio = 32;
if(mpx1.native_value != mpx2.native_value)
{
ratio = ((r2 != r1 ? 299*64 * int(r - r1) / int(r2-r1) : 0)
+ (g2 != g1 ? 587*64 * int(g - g1) / int(g2-g1) : 0)
+ (b1 != b2 ? 114*64 * int(b - b1) / int(b2-b1) : 0))
/ ((r2 != r1 ? 299 : 0)
+ (g2 != g1 ? 587 : 0)
+ (b2 != b1 ? 114 : 0));
if(ratio < 0) ratio = 0; else if(ratio > 63) ratio = 63;
}
unsigned r0 = r1 + ratio * int(r2-r1) / 64;
unsigned g0 = g1 + ratio * int(g2-g1) / 64;
unsigned b0 = b1 + ratio * int(b2-b1) / 64;
double penalty = dither_mixing_error(
r,g,b, r0,g0,b0, r1,g1,b1, r2,g2,b2,
ratio / double(64));
if(penalty < least_penalty)
{
least_penalty = penalty;
plan->colors[0] = index1;
plan->colors[1] = index2;
plan->ratio = ratio / double(64);
}
}
return gfx_result::success;
}
It's not easy. I know it could be faster, but I don't think I can make many algorithmic improvements and that's the sort of improvement I need to achieve orders of magnitude reduction in time requirements - that's what I need right now.
