dear all

i want to ask why we need to convert an image from:
"colored" to "gray scale" to "binary"
during working on projects like face recognition, image
processing ....etc

does this step important?

why we can't convert directly from colored to binary ???

i need your help to understand this issue, please

Because two small steps are easier than one
big step. And because, in this case, the
end result will be the same.
