Is there a VI that reports the apparent radius of an image particle, in REAL pixels rather than INTEGER?

We are looking at shapes that are nearly round.
We are trying to calculate their volume.
If we capture the image, and then look at the binary version, and then ask for the equivalent diameter or radius, we get a value in pixels which is integer. This is giving us a course resolution. There should be a way to get this in REAL value. This is almost like the Waddell Disk Diameter that IMAQ's full suite of analyses would give you.
This measurement is repeated quickly, so firing up the IMAQ analyses may not be practical.
Is there a way to get this back in a LabVIEW VI?

Well, if you are mostly interested in the area of the circular particles, couldn't you just get that directly by counting all adjacent pixels within a certain shade range? Assuming circular particles, you can then calculate an effective radius with much higher resolution.
You could probably also detect the particle edges in several directions, then use "fitting on a sphere" on these edge points (If you keep z=0, this algorithm works perfectly for fitting 2D circles in the plane!).

  • Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a

    Hi All,
    We are using an external document image system where we scan and code vendor invoices. They are send to our SAP system via a BAPI.
    We want to update the status of the invoice in the document image system from the status in the SAP system, so whether it is still open or has been paid and cleared. Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a specific vendor open item?
    Regards,
    Gerrit

    Are you sure about that? Several highly regarded, widely downloaded apps, e.g., eReader, have an option to hide the status bar. The developer forums are awash in discussions about the commands to hide the status bar-- it's built in to the SDK.
    I figure someone will have put out a small program that does nothing but hide the status bar or allow its tweaking... much like StatusBar does on the Palm OS 5 PDAs...

  • Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?

    Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?  

    Hi,
    as such there is no DOC but I can share my views:
    Under Pros:
    a. PCD is an application use to migrate older versions[6.1.5, 7.x , 8.x] running on MCS to VM servers.
    b.It can be used to change the IP address or hostname on new servers without affecting existing version .
    c. Many users using MCS Hardware are not willing to migrate to latest version because of existing HW not supporting interim releases which they have to hop through to get on to the target release.
    d. Further, this requires license re-hosting as well for interim releases and major downtimes as well which can be avoided by using PCD without disturbing existing setup.
    e. Also, DRAM/HDD sizing needs to be considered while doing migration on MCS.PCD addresses these issues for migration.
    Under CONS:
    a. It needs to be ordered through Product Upgrade Tool and bootable is not downloadable from Cisco site.
    b. You could face some issues while doing migration which could be bugs but can be resolved.
    c.could face issues while discovering  cluster/doing migration but can be resolved.

  • Is there an app that hides the status bar?  Or permits customization of it?

    I'd like to hide the time in the status bar, or replace it with other information.
    Reason: I don't like being reminded what time it is when using a PDA type device, especially not in the middle of the night if I'm reading on it.
    Is there an app that hides the bar universally, or lets one replace the time, with say the date or other text?

    Hello,
    Just to set your expectations...it's fine to "rant" about things here, but I do hope you are not expecting a formal reply from anyone at BlackBerry. For this site is not a channel for any formal communications with, escalations to, nor support from BlackBerry for any purpose whatsoever. Rather, it is a user-to-user community of volunteers who try to help each other out to the best of their abilities. Note this banner, please, posted at the top of nearly every page of the site:
    Consequently, words posted such as "WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" are actually directed at the other kind volunteers of this site, who may not respond in the most kindly of fashions. Hopefully, we all can understand that your rant is directed at BlackBerry (though, by placing it here, it is misplaced), but I just wanted to gently caution you about such posts, as well as ensure that your expectation concerning replies is properly set. Also, for new members who join the site, it's always good to have responses to such posts, covering the intended use of the site so that those new members can better understand such things.
    On the other hand, if you do desire assistance from other users for your issues, you might consider wording your requests in a manner that would motivate a kind volunteer to provide such.
    Good luck!
    Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Make sure that y do not leave any foreign material or leave anything in the jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

    I have two iphones in my house hold one syncs with my MAC Itunes the other doesn't is there a setting that casues the Iphone to stops syncing with Itunes?

    You need to start over with Music. On the iPhone Music screen uncheck sync music. Also, on the Summary screen uncheck "Manually manage music and videos", then sync and it should clear off your phone.
    Next, choose the music you want to sync. If you want to fit more on check "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC". This will reduce quality slightly, but it won't be noticable unless you are using $300 headphones.

    None of the spreadsheet apps that work with Excel files offer anything like full native support in iOS.  Apple's own Numbers app pairs down features for the iOS version.  The hardware is simply not up to what a true computer is capable of, so all apps like QuickOffice, DocumentsToGo, Numbers and so forth offer reduced features from their computer-version counterparts.
    I think a custom app will be your only real choice, be it a fully standalone app, or something built in filemaker or some other db-based platform.

    By the way, in case you do not have an application that does not support DNS, it might be worth to rely only on DNS resolution in your environment.

  • When following a link, some sited do not display and the heading reads "clk (GIF Image, 1 x 1 pixels)"

    When following some links, the displayed page is blank and the header shows "clk (GIF Image, 1 x 1 pixels)". These are usually links from advertising sites or email promotions. I suspect that they are paid for links and somehow the logging info is causing this problem. It has only recently started to happen, so I suspect that a recent update has caused it.
