No I know there's nothing like the code which will find things on an image, but cocoa does have the primitive bits I think I need like converting to a bitmap I can search. The best for me actually would probably be converting to a bitmap with alpha channel only, then I can search it byte by byte for things with alpha > threshold and that will be enough. What I was looking for were the best and fastest ways to get a PNG into such a bitmap .. or any other suggestions for looking at the image pixel by pixel and determining which bits of it are coloured .. after a fashion.

I have an image, it's PNG in this case although GIF/JPG are possible. It's got a transparent background and a few well-spaced coloured circles on it. Most of the image is blank.

I want to search the image and find the locations of the circles.

There's nothing really like this in Cocoa, but OpenCV has all sorts of computer-vision functionality, including blob detection (and even more interesting things, like face detection). Enjoy.
