WARNING: Would not recommend this project for anything, it is greater than 13 years old at this point and not maintained. I am sure you can find better projects out there doing essentially the same thing, e.g. OpenCV can demosaic raw data. I plan to post some updates just because I wish to toy with cmake and github actions and this felt like a good dummy project in which to do that. Just becuase there are some recent commits does not mean this is a maintained project :) -- Jeff circa 2021
bayer2rgb will convert naked (no header) bayer grid data into rgb data. There are several choices of interpolation . It can output tiff files, and can integrate with ImageMagick to output other formats.
The bayer.c was borrowed from the libdc1394 project [1], it is licensed under
LGPL. The interpolation algorithms used are described at [3].
This is an implementation of the idea I stumbled upon on ImageMagick's mailing list while searching for a bayer grid converter. The thread can be found at [2].

A delegates.xml file is included. Add the entries from it to your delegates.xml and you should be able to do:
