nope .. i just want only where the centroid of the object is located so i can send the data for ROBOT to pick it (pick and place)
and about the caliper function it's only for the robot arm width

now i can located the centroid of the object but
when i sent it for labview it's still show the data in pixel type (it is centimetre when it shows in VA thought)

can you teach me How ? my knowledge in using Labview program is so low
i got only the panel like in the picture i attached

the only ploblem now is
LabViEW is show where the centroid is located (x,y) in pixel but i want them to show as centimetre
but the caliper function work just fine by giving me the length in centimetre already

One simple way of measuring objects is to physically measure it and equate the pixels to it. You can always have some lookup table to map them. Still i am not sure how a single point (x,y) has to be converted to cms.
In breif with respect to what you want to measure the centroid position?

my assigned project is to process the picture for where the object is located but the programs can only give me in pixel
but the Robot position input is use x,y,z,u,v position by centimetre or millemetre i'm not so sure, so .. if this can be done my project is almost 80% success
but i 've stucked on this only problem for about 2 months already
ps . tnx for ur help thought
** it's a 6-axis robot arm for pick and place things

Again i dont know if my understanding is right.
A robotic hand pick up is not easy to accomplish. There are lot of ground work and calibration that has to be done.
1. You have to first define the area beyond which if the object is placed it will not get picked up. Basically a limit.
2. The back ground if consistent will inturn addup to the result being very relaible.
3. I will strongly suggest calibrating using grid calibration.
4. As said in point 1 when you have efined your area, you have to calibrate the arm with respect to the end points (Bounding box)
5. Now you have a reference from which you can locate and grab the object

i forget to tell u something which is
a scope in my project is only on 2-d dimension so z axis is not count
