Comparing Images using Icam

[conipto]

How about

If not BitmapA.GetPixel(x, y) = BitmapB.GetPixel(x, y) then

instead? equals is in the list of operators for type color in the help files..

it doesn't work too..it gives out the same error...

here is the code from the class

Private Sub cmdViewStill_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdViewStill.Click
If myCam.iRunning Then
Dim a As FrmImage
a = New FrmImage

a.picImage.Image = myCam.copyFrame(Me.picOutput, New RectangleF(0, 0, _
Me.picOutput.Width, Me.picOutput.Height))

SomethingMoved()
Else
MessageBox.Show("Camera Is Not Running!")
End If
End Sub
Public Function SomethingMoved(ByVal BitmapA As Bitmap, ByVal BitmapB As Bitmap) As Boolean

Dim x As Integer = 0
Dim y As Integer = 0
Dim ChangedPixelCount As Integer = 0

'assume both images are the same size
For y = 2 To BitmapA.Height Step 5
For x = 2 To BitmapA.Width Step 5
If BitmapA.GetPixel(x, y) = BitmapB.GetPixel(x, y) Then
ChangedPixelCount += 1
End If
Next x
Next y

If ChangedPixelCount >= 5 Then
'yes, motion detected
Return True
Else
'nope.
Return False
End If

End Function


now how do i save 2 image and compare pixels? the operators "=" and "<>" doesn't work at all...or is there a way to convert bitmap to integer so that i can use the operators?
