# init(interleavedBuffer:)

Creates a 3-channel, 8-bit-per-channel multiple-plane buffer from a 3-channel, 8-bit-per-channel interleaved buffer.

## Declaration

```swift
init(interleavedBuffer: vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Interleaved8x3>)
```

## Parameters

- `interleavedBuffer`: The source pixel buffer.

## Discussion

Discussion Use this function to deinterleave a pixel buffer and store the result as homogeneous planes that are represented by multiple underlying vImage buffers. For example, the following code creates a new vImage.Planar8x3 pixel buffer from a vImage.Interleaved8x3 pixel buffer: let src = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Interleaved8x3>(     pixelValues: [50, 100, 150] as [UInt8],     size: vImage.Size(width: 1, height: 1))

let dest = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.Planar8x3>(interleavedBuffer: src)

// Prints "[50] [100] [150]" dest.withUnsafePixelBuffers { pixelBuffers in     for pixelBuffer in pixelBuffers {         print(pixelBuffer.array)     } }
