Hi ceciliap004,

I would take a look at the Pattern Match.vi example found in the example finder which uses the IMAQ Extract VI to create a new IMAQ image based off a region of interest. Looking ahead at future problems it looks like you are going to have an issue with rotation. We have a VI called IMAQ rotate that could work for you but it will be more difficult to use. You may want to introduce a masking stage (IMAQ roitomask 2) to cut out all parts of the image except the area you care about before you rotate. Additionally, while extract and mask will be less processor intensive, rotation is pixel manipulation and will take more power to complete.

I hope this helps.
