You can define really complex ROIs, including free shapes. More info Image Aqcuitision and Processing with LabVIEW attached (sorry, no idea why the images are negatives ). That said, Antoine put it, you might not actually want to make a complex ROI if all you want to do is find the rough colour of the symbol. I'd make a binary mask based on a B/W intensity threshold then look at the average colour. ROIs.pdf

Rather than re-hash all the sessions others have already mentioned, here's a couple of sessions I'll be at: Session: TS4420-CE Session Title: Long-term Investment in Test: Building Common Core Test Platforms (I'm presenting this one) Session Schedule: Wednesday 8/4/10 at 16:45 in room 11A Session Description: As we build our way back from challenging economic times, many companies are shying away from short term thinking one-off test systems and are instead investing in long term test platforms. Learn about National Instruments Software and Hardware used by industry leaders to stay ahead of the curve. Session will cover introduction to platform-based architectures, and how to implement them using NI Software development environments including TestStand & LabVIEW, as well as hardware technologies including distributed/shared resouces. Session Comments: I'm presenting this one Session: TS3033-MA Session Title: NI Requirements Gateway – A Power User’s Session Session Schedule: Wednesday 8/4/10 at 15:30 in room 17B Session Description: A lot of people are using NI Requirements Gateway, especially in the Medical and Defense/Aerospace areas. Learn how to use Requirements Gateway more efficiently to manage your projects. Topics include customizing NIRG to use your own SRS documents, creating reports, and coverage statements in your documentation / code Comments: Presented by Mike Rakolta - a must if you want to see how to get traceability into your projects to shorten project cycles and lower engineering risk. Even if you don't think that NIRG fits into your corporate processes, come see how you can use it personally to keep track of your work (as well as cover your butt ) How long are you going to be in town? The Texas State Museum (just north of the captial building) is well worth a visit. Yes - heaps of 'em! That said, you'll probably just want to hook up with a few LAVA members - we all know the good places. You'll know us as we always sit front-and-center at the keynotes (yes, we're geeks). I'd go to Stephen's presentation. NI Corporate is neat, but unless you really really want to see where Jeff K sits, then I'd skip it.

Indeed - and you can find more information on this and many more ini key settings here: http://labviewwiki.org/LabVIEW_configuration_file

I beleive so - Justin will post once it's full.

I'll be at the Hilton. Sunday night: Gingerman Monday night: Alliance party + 6th Street Tuesday night: Nothing planned. Ok, ok, I guess I might go to the LAVA BBQ Wednesday night: NI-Week Conference party Thursday night: Home

Hey everyone - make sure you order your tshirt soon to make sure it gets to you in time for NI-Week! Fabo! Know I'll know who you are

Maybe we'll need a marshalling area on Trinity

Awww mate - 6th street is a blast - lot of booze and body shots (errr, so I hear... ) The "busrting into flames" is a reference to a "flaming Dr. Pepper", a 6th street staple - mmmmmmmmmm... In that case, I guess I better buy a ticket too...

0x00FF00 As usual, zazzle is offering a couple of promotional coupons - here's the first one: I'll post the second one as soon as I get it.

Sorry no. If there are any left over after NI-Week, I'll let you know (although you might want to remind me )

I know, right? Looks like the dude's shrugging something off while wearing a linebacker's pads... $25 Cold hard cash. Actually, just come to the BBQ - we'll be handing hte out there. 'cause we all know the real reason engineers go to NI-Week: lanyard ribbons! Sorry vugie - it's too late for this year, but please ping me about 2 months out form NI-Week next year and we'll see what we can do.

LAVA Member: Did crelf forget about the LAVA T-Shirt this year? crelf: Of course not! I've just been busy is all By popular demand, here it is: the new and improved greener 2010 NI-Week LAVA T-Shirt! LAVA Member: But isn't that just the same as last year's? crelf: Yes, and no. Last year's was a deep maroon, but this year LAVA is going green! We loved last year's logo and design competition winner so much, we decided to keep it for this year too. LAVA Member, Ok, ok, I want to be part of the cool crowd - where can I get one? crelf: I'm glad you asked -> click here to check them out <- (seriously - this year's theme is green - even the "LAVA Member" lanyard ribbons are green )

It's because you're a moderator - if you delete it, it's gone for everyone.

Fab-o! I'tll be great to see you there! Word of warning: the number is capped this year, so make sure you get your ticket early. I'm pretty sure we won't be selling any tickeets at the door...

If we can get a bus or two (like in previous years), that'd be most excellent!

Yep - the ones we get from OrbitMicro are good quality, and they have a bunch of different configuration options.

Oh, I'm sure you did

It's good to know LAVA is loved BBQ news coming soon...

I love how the peices get out of each others' way:
