Separating overlapping objects in 1bit image

[alang1]

I am making a program that takes pictures of coins and turns them into a 1bit image , is there any way to deal with coins that might overlap to see them as separate coins

Hello alang,

Have you considered using IMAQdx, it contains software that is able to programtically determine edges of shapes etc. so you are able to process the images and determine the number of coins on the surface area.
