2 Getting Measurement-Ready Images This chapter describes how to set up your imaging system, acquire and display an image, analyze the image, and prepare the image for additional processing. Set Up Your Imaging System Before you acquire, analyze, and process images, you must set up your imaging system. The manner in which you set up your system depends on your imaging environment and the type of analysis and processing you need to do. Your imaging system should produce images with high enough qu

Chapter 2 Getting Measurement-Ready Images Source and Destination Images Some IMAQ Vision functions that modify the contents of an image have source image and destination image input parameters. The source image receives the image to process. The destination image receives the processing results. The destination image can receive either another image or the original, depending on your goals. If you do not want the contents of the original image to change, use separate source and destination imag

Chapter 2 Getting Measurement-Ready Images imaqAdd(myImageA,myImageA,myImageB); This function adds two source images and stores the result in the first source image. imaqAdd(myImageB,myImageA,myImageB); This function adds two source images and stores the result in the second source image. Most operations between two images require that the images have the same type and size. However, some arithmetic operations can work between two different types of images (for example, 8-bit and 16-bit). So

Chapter 2 Getting Measurement-Ready Images Acquiring an Image Use one of the following methods to acquire images with a National Instruments image acquisition (IMAQ) device: Acquire a single image usingimaqEasyAcquire(). When you call this function, it initializes the IMAQ device and acquires the next incoming video frame. Use this function for low-speed single capture applications where ease of programming is essential. Acquire a single image usingimaqSnap(). When you call this function, it
