## 🚀 Installation

Install the library using `pip`:

```bash
pip install simple-image2ascii
```

---

## 🔧 Usage

### 📷 Convert Image to ASCII

```python
import cv2
import simple_image2ascii

# Load an image
image = cv2.imread("example.jpg")

# Create an ASCIIEngine instance
engine = simple_image2ascii.ASCIIEngine()

# Convert to ASCII
ascii_art = engine.get_ascii(image)

# Print the result
print(ascii_art)
```

### 🎥 Convert Video to ASCII (Using OpenCV)

```python
import cv2
import simple_image2ascii

cap = cv2.VideoCapture("video.mp4")
engine = simple_image2ascii.ASCIIEngine()

while cap.isOpened():
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    if not ret:
        break

    ascii_frame = engine.get_ascii(frame)
    print(ascii_frame)

cap.release()
```
