I'm not entirely sure how that VI works but you can use IMAQdx VI's to acquire from your webcam and then use Image to Array.vi to convert it into an array of intensity values.

hi kamalm2,

   Hi one thing i need clarification from you whether are u taking snaps or continuos stream from the webcam.If you are taking a snap,you can save that file as bmp and read it and show it in 2-d,or if you are interesting continuos stream,then you should prefrom continuos read and write of bmps.

Please detail your problem.

Thanks and regards,
