Abstract
A threshold modulation method, includes the steps of: a) determining whether an input pixel value is greater than a threshold of a current input pixel from the original digital image; b) determining whether an output image value is a predetermined high level or low level based on the threshold; c) if the input pixel value is greater than the threshold and the output image value is the predetermined high level, modulating the threshold of the adjacent pixel; d) if the input pixel value is greater than the threshold and the output image value is the predetermined low level, modulating the threshold of the adjacent pixel; e) if the input pixel value is not greater than the threshold and the output image value is the predetermined low level, modulating the threshold of the adjacent pixel; and f) if the input pixel value is not greater than the threshold and the output image value is the predetermined high level, modulating the threshold of the adjacent pixel.
