How to save an image from an ROI and then convert to an array of pixels?

[kloram333]

I am working with a USB CCD camera and LabView 2012 on a project. Using some drivers that came with the instrument (imaging source USB CCD drivers) I created a program to display a live feed image and then grab an image and select a ROI. I need to convert this ROI to a new image and then save it, but I am having trouble doing so. I also will need to convert the ROI image to an array of pixels, and I don't know how to go about doing that either. Any help is appreciated! I attached my attempt at the program so far.

Hello Kloram, 

Here are some examples that I have found from our NI Community pages that perform your desired actions.

[1] Create an Image from ROI 

[2] Create New Image from User Selected ROI

Then simply use the following functions from the Vision Development Module in conjunction with the previous examples to achieve your application:

- IMAQ ColorImageToArray

- IMAQ ImageToArray
