Rotate image by 90, 180 or 270 degrees

Question

I need to rotate an image by either 90, 180 or 270 degrees. In OpenCV4Android I can use:

Imgproc.getRotationMatrix2D(new Point(center, center), degrees, 1);         


        

Answer 1

I wrote this Python version using Numpy only, which are much faster than using cv2.transpose() and cv2.flip().

def rotate_image_90(im, angle):
    if angle % 90 == 0:
        angle = angle % 360
        if angle == 0:
            return im
        elif angle == 90:
            return im.transpose((1,0, 2))[:,::-1,:]
        elif angle == 180:
            return im[::-1,::-1,:]
        elif angle == 270:
            return im.transpose((1,0, 2))[::-1,:,:]

    else:
        raise Exception('Error')
