I cannot skeletonize my image

[Riq]

I have some problem in skeletonizing an acquired image. When the VI is executed, the error message: invalid image type appears. Is it because my image is not binary? If it is the reason, how to make my image into binary. Attached is the VI I use to process the image. Pls give any suggestion on what I should do. Thanks a lot

Hello,

IMAQ Skeleton function requires an 8bit image as an input (see help file for more detailed info). Any other image type as an input will result in the invalid image type error.
I hope this helps.
