scipy.misc.fromimage

scipy.misc.fromimage(im, flatten=0)

Return a copy of a PIL image as a numpy array.

Parameters :

im : PIL image

Input image.

flatten : bool

If true, convert the output to grey-scale.

The different colour bands/channels are stored in the third dimension, such that a grey-image is MxN, an RGB-image MxNx3 and an RGBA-image MxNx4.
