Hello, i'm undergraduated student and i'm working on my last project, i want to ask how to convert image pixel array to gcode, i need the step not the program, please someone explain to me

Thank you for your attention

What exactly do you mean by "gcode"?

LabVIEW is known as coding in "G".

Also, there is G-code as related to computer controlled machining.

To get help, you should put a little more description to your project, what you have started, and where you are stuck.

Sorry, i forgot, i'm working on my project mini cnc+ arduino grbl shieldv.3, i know that grbl shield can only accept g-code commands, i stuck at how to convert image pixel to gcode, what i have to do after i've got the image pixel

Thank you

You'll have to figure out some algorithm to do that.  If you are stuck, you'll need to find a subject matter expert, and you probably won't find that person on the LabVIEW forums.

Thank you for your suggest,

This problem sounds SO FAMILIAR.  I saw a topic a while back - something to do about turning a picture into some kind of mask or something for CNC.

Do any of these topics help?

Both of the topics mention turning pictures into something.
