Photo Log: Horse Running Animation

Complex figures are tough to build programmatic-ally(dynamic creation), so such figures are converted from an image to equivalent header files, and then called after a certain time delay(creating frame rate) so to it seem as animated.  CLick to view swf. 

This is the gif i choose.

Horse Running GIF.

 This is frame by frame image.

Frame by Frame Image.

So obviously the next step is to separate each image by cropping. Using any image editor. As shown below.

Cropping Individual Image.

Now separated image needs to be converted to monochrome. To see how to do view this post. Converting Bitmap Image to Equivalent Header File.

Difference Grayscale and Monochrome Image

Make individual header files where number of header files = number of images/frames.

Individual Header Files.

The LoadBitmap Function that was used to show bitmap images is used here to show the frame by frame animation.

void LoadBitmap(unsigned char *bitmap) { uint16_t i, j,by; for(i=0; i<64; i+=8)                                 for(j=0; j<128; j++)                                 {                                                 by=pgm_read_byte(bitmap++);                                                 ks0108GotoXY(j, i);                                                 ks0108WriteData(by);                                 } }

Here is the main function as shown below.

void main() {     for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);     ks0108Init(0);     ks0108ClearScreen();     while(1)     {         LoadBitmap(horse001);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse002);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse003);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse004);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse005);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse006);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse007);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse008);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse009);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse010);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);         LoadBitmap(horse011);         for(volatile uint16_t i=0; i<15000; i++);             }//end of while loop }

Currently the frame rate is 15frames per second one can vary and change the speed of display by varying the value of i.  To make a more precise frame rate stay connect for future post.

This is the final output.
