I have the following vi I need to create and I just wanted some input on how to go about it. I have a color jpeg image and I want to identify the number of pixels in the image of a specific color.
do you mean a fixed color with RGB representation or a range like red or green so that light green is also a result? You can use the image functions to read your picture and search in the image array. If you have an RGB value to find, then you can use the "search array" function to get the result, if you need to find a range like "red", then i would transfer all pixels to HSV representation.
It is a fixed color RGB image so there is only 1 shade of each color. So your recommendation is to get the RGB value for this color change the image to an array and scan the array to identify the amount of pixels of the selected RGB value?
But just for my future knowledge you mentioned earlier if I were to specify a range you would convert to an HSV image. Why is this? And how would you calculate the amount of pixels in the range if this was the case?
