RGB version?

[ofou]

I was wondering if it's possible to make a RGB version of this algorithm using 3 threads instead of one. It would be amazing if this is possible. Have you thought about it?

[i-make-robots]

I see how that would be possible. If you don’t see an update in a week, ping me.

Is it possible to make not just Red Green Blue version, but colorful (depends how many colors picture require or you set for example 3-5 colors in settings)? In order to receive something like this

I can see how it would be done. I'm crazy busy until tuesday but after that I can actually write code. Before then, let's work out a few details. How would you decide what colors to start with, and when to stop using each color?

maybe before scan an image you can choose (or change in code) something like modes: fast(3 colors), medium(4 colors), exact(5 colors) or just simply set number of colors in code "colors: 3" or "colors: 5", etc. And when program scans the image it chooses main 3-4-5 colors(depending to what number you set in code) of the image you need in order to replicate the picture in choosen quality.

[i-make-robots]

sure. I could build a histogram to find the most obvious colors, and then just tell the user "get these N colors". What about when to stop using a color?

hm.. not sure about this) maybe you already have something in mind?

[i-make-robots]

So I put in some work in this. I saw Instagram user @art.nitka has figured it out. She’s not sharing her technique. I tried to write a version that used black string AND white string, but it didn’t work well. She’s got a tricky method for switching colours. The order of strings means that some strings cover others in a way that improves the results. I don’t get how they calculate it, except by brute force trying everything. My method was trying to look at the amount of a color left in the original image + the amount of error in the finished weave. Results looked bad.

I just counted one of her pieces. She has 188 nails around the edge. I usually math with way more! Hmm... doesn’t solve anything, it’s just an interesting data point.

I found some other code on github but can't get it work/install the script as I am not familiar with programming, but maybe this code will help you to figure out how is it possible to make it in your script?

Huh. Exactly the same as my algorithm but all three colours run in parallel.

committed a change that should get you closer to what you seek.

Nice work. I have found that she uses max 8000 lines. Here is a result on 8000 lines by your algorithm (she used black, white, yellow, green and red).
One thing is maybe that she uses grey/coffee color canvas so it helps and add one more color close to skin color but I am not sure it helps at all.
another thing I guess thier algorithm may work like layer after layer. For example you knit some lines in black color then some pack of lines by red, then pack/layer with yellow, then again layer of black, etc
but not like different color lines everytime line by line because in this case whole picture will take a lot of time, not just a few of days.

[i-make-robots]

It may also help to stop (click) the simulation earlier. I find I only get maybe 25-50% done before I feel it is at its best.

[whitecherep]

seems you have updated black/white algorithm to colors too?
Here is (3rd from the left) a version by that algorithm (maybe even better?)

[fanqieo]

I like your program very much
Let's say I set 30,000 lines and I only execute 2,000 lines and I'm done
