More LABView
- Dr Koch made a suggestion on my previous lab entry about my 3d array deal
- Unfortunately, I do not think my message came across clearly
- I have a for loop that runs through each photo in a file and creates a 2-d array of pixels for each photo
- If it is not a photo, it creates a 2-d array of 0's as a place holder
- The array of arrays comes out as a 3-d array, a "page" then a 2d array on each "page"
- Koch suggested I turn the 3d array into a 2d array, which is bad b/c i want to keep it in 3d form to preserve the "one photo per page" form it has
- What I want to do though, is delete "pages" that have no image on them, since labview gets mad at me if I try to image an array of 0's
- Koch is a genius. He came in and told me to initialize the array and then concatenate it using shift registers. This helped eliminate the creation of blank arrays when a non photo is passed.
- One step closer to the end! I got the VI to display an array of photos that is scroll-a-ble
- 2 problems with the program
- The "original" photo does not look nice like the one Larry has been working on. Mine is too bright
- The array, after being pixel-ized , is blue
- Koch to the rescue again! We fixed it by changing the 12bit array into an 8 bit array (by dividing by 2^4) and then made a color map which took all RGB into a grayscale
- The old photo was only using the Blue scale, thats why it was blue
Acetic Acid
- Also known as Vitamin C
- Brigette tried to use vitamin C on microtubules
- Koch's email stated that it would act as an anticrumbling agent
- I "helped" (but most likely just got in the way)
- She made a fresh batch of tubes
- We also tried to image the old tubes from friday that Igor and I made, but those were dead
- The fresh batch didnt show anything
- The fresh batch + Vitamin C didnt show anything
- She thinks she used brb80k on the tubes, which either didnt stabilize or just plain ate up the tubes.
