Binary Image

Hello..

I am working on the DM6437 for face detection application.  One of the step for face detection is to convert the image into a binary image. I know that the binary image is having two possible values(e.g  Black & White) and bits per pixel is 1. On DM6437 the input and output image format is YCbCr 4:2:2 and bits per pixel is 16. Taking this into consideration, how can we convert input YCbCr into a binary image. Can we change bits per pixel from 16 to 1. We have to convert our binary image (If we get any) back to YCbCr for display. Will the image after conversion to YCbCr be binary image? 

 

 

Please Guide me.

Thanks
