Determine the perimeter of the objects in a binary image

Syntax

Description

BW2 = bwperim(BW1,n) returns a binary image containing only the perimeter pixels of objects in the input image BW1. A pixel is part of the perimeter if its value is 1 and there is at least one zero-valued pixel in its neighborhood. n can have a value of either 4 or 8, where 4 specifies 4-connected neighborhoods and 8 specifies 8-connected neighborhoods; if the argument is omitted, it defaults to 4.

Class Support

The input image BW1 can be of class double or uint8. The output image BW2 is of class uint8.
