/**
* This Binarizer implementation uses the old ZXing global histogram approach. It is suitable
* for low-end mobile devices which don't have enough CPU or memory to use a local thresholding
* algorithm. However, because it picks a global black point, it cannot handle difficult shadows
* and gradients.
*
* Faster mobile devices and all desktop applications should probably use HybridBinarizer instead.
