Convert Bitmap to gray-scale with ColorMatrix

To convert Bitmap to gray-scale, we can apply ColorMatrix with the following matrix:

   //Array to generate Gray-Scale image
   float[] GrayArray = {
     0.213f, 0.715f, 0.072f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
     0.213f, 0.715f, 0.072f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
     0.213f, 0.715f, 0.072f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
     0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f,  
   };

Remark: This exercise aim to demonstrate the matrix. Actually you can setSaturation(0) of  ColorMatrix to do the same effect.

Hello,
Very good work. I have been following your blog since a long time and love the codes you have provided. Can you please also tell how to save the image after conversion?
