Issue Details

  • How do I apply a mask to a picture in LabVIEW?
  • How do I apply a mask to an IMAQ image?
  • How do I use Vision Development Module to apply a mask to an image?

Solution

There are two LabVIEW examples on applying masks to images. You can open the LabVIEW Example Finder by selecting Help>>Find Examples.

If you are only planning to use basic LabVIEW functions (not those in the Vision Development Module) you can look at Using Mask with Picture.vi. You can search for it in Example Finder or browse to it under Building User Interfaces>>Generating 2D Pictures.

If you are using Vision Development Module to operate on an image in an IMAQ buffer, you should look at Image Mask.vi. You can search for this example or find it under Toolkits and Modules>>Vision>>Image Management.
