ASCII Art app for Android

Thank you for taking the time to look at my little Android app.

If you find this code of any value please consider download the app at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.currie.asciirrific

Inspirations

The general idea came from coming across this ascii art webcam app https://github.com/idevelop/ascii-camera and this Tweet. Thank you Stungeye

http://www.fourcc.org/yuv.php#NV21 helped me to understand NV21 pixel format. And this Stackoverflow question helped me understand how to decode it.

Images used in the app are android drawables http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.drawable.html borrowed from the stock Jelly Bean camera app https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Camera.git

Thanks jodygillis for getting me started with android.

And finally thank you to my wife and kids for allowing me to indulge my curiosity.
