Here is the code to compare 2 bitmaps images.
public class ComparingImages
{
public enum CompareResult
{
Match,
Mismatch,
SizeMismatch
};
public static CompareResult Compare(Bitmap bmp1, Bitmap bmp2)
{
CompareResult cr = CompareResult.Match;
//Test to see if we have the same size of image
if (bmp1.Size != bmp2.Size)
{
cr = CompareResult.SizeMismatch;
}
else
{
//Convert each image to a byte array
ImageConverter ic = new ImageConverter();
byte[] btImage1 = new byte[1];
btImage1 = (byte[])ic.ConvertTo(bmp1, btImage1.GetType());
byte[] btImage2 = new byte[1];
btImage2 = (byte[])ic.ConvertTo(bmp2, btImage2.GetType());
//Compute a hash for each image
var shaM = new SHA256Managed();
byte[] hash1 = shaM.ComputeHash(btImage1);
byte[] hash2 = shaM.ComputeHash(btImage2);
//Compare the hash values
for (int i = 0; i < hash1.Length && i < hash2.Length
&& cr == CompareResult.Match; i++)
{
if (hash1[i] != hash2[i])
cr = CompareResult.Mismatch;
}
}
return cr;
}
}
Thanks!
