# init(planarBuffers:)

Creates a 3-channel, 32-bit-per-channel interleaved buffer from three 32-bit planar buffers.

```
init(planarBuffers: [vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.PlanarF>])
```

## Parameters

`planarBuffers`

An array that contains three 32-bit planar buffers.

## Discussion

Use this function to interleave three discrete planar buffers. For example, the following code creates a three-channel interleaved buffer from three planar buffers:

```swift
let planar0 = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.PlanarF>(
    pixelValues: [Float(0.1), Float(0.2)],
    size: vImage.Size(width: 2, height: 1))

let planar1 = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.PlanarF>(
    pixelValues: [Float(0.3), Float(0.4)],
    size: vImage.Size(width: 2, height: 1))

let planar2 = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.PlanarF>(
    pixelValues: [Float(0.5), Float(0.6)],
    size: vImage.Size(width: 2, height: 1))

let interleaved = vImage.PixelBuffer<vImage.InterleavedFx3>(
    planarBuffers: [planar0, planar1, planar2])

// Prints "[0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6]".
print(interleaved.array)
```
