Answer 1

I had some issues in Swift 1.2 using UInt, now I'm using Int and it's working. This Example shows how to convert an Image to a grayscale image.

let imageRect = self.myImage.frame

let colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceGray()
let width = imageRect.width
let height = imageRect.height

let bitmapInfo = CGBitmapInfo(CGImageAlphaInfo.None.rawValue)
let context = CGBitmapContextCreate(nil, Int(width), Int(height), 8, 0, colorSpace, bitmapInfo)
