Importing Images in Run-Time, for analysing with cursors

[labuda]

Hi,

I would like to import images, one by one, in runtime like the image attached?

The idea is to extract distance information between all the dots in the image. So it would be nice to move a series of cursor around and then ask the program to extract the distance.

Also, it would be nice to be able to rotate the image slightly, and to skew them... but that might be asking for too much.

I guess importing the image as a graph background would do the job, considering the framework for cursors is already setup in the case of graphs.

Anyone know?

aleks.

Hi,

To import images into LabVIEW, I would use the Read Jpeg File.vi in conjuction with the Draw Flattened Pixmap.vi.  I have attached a link to the KB that talks about how to import images into LabVIEW.  I have also attached a link to a devzone article regarding how to use the image vi's:
