Working out taking colour average difference. using combination of code used in Practical 10  of CS6114 Digital Video Compression and Delivery and the example found on this website. http://theolagendijk.wordpress.com/2006/07/01/taking-color-average-from-image/ specifically this part.

import flash.display.BitmapData;

var image:MovieClip = this["image"];
image._x = 100;
image._y = 100;
image._visible = true;

var bitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(image._width,image._height,false);
bitmap.draw(image);

var sumColorR:Number = 0;
var sumColorG:Number = 0;
var sumColorB:Number = 0;
var count:Number = 0;

for(var h:Number = 0; h < number =" 0;" number =" bitmap.getPixel(w,">>> 16;
sumColorG += (col & 0×00FF00) >>> 8;
sumColorB += (col & 0×0000FF);
count++;
}
}

It is hoped that once I have this working, I will be be able to attach filters and use more suitable methods of difference detection.

Have also begun preliminary interface design
