Steps to display image in GUI using Matlab

Step 1: Open GUI

Open Matlab -> Go to Start -> GUIDE(GUI Builder)

Select Blank GUI(Default) in GUIDE Quick Start

Step 2: Create Axes

Click on axes and create axes. Adjust size (width x height) according to your necessary.

Step 3: Save GUI

Now save GUI and click on M-file Editor

Step 4: Write code to display image

Write code after guidata(hObject, handles) in Updata handles structure

axes(handles.axes1);
imshow('G:\display\sample_image.jpg')

Here sample_image is image name & display is folder where image is saved.
Axes1 is name of axes.

It looks like this

% Update handles structure
guidata(hObject, handles);
axes(handles.axes1);
imshow('G:\display\sample_image.jpg')

Step 5: Run GUI

Now click on Run button to see result.

Matlab can display any image format like jpg, gif, tif etc using imshow command.


imshow('path\image_name.jpg')

imshow is command to display image in Matlab.

path is dir where image is present.

image_name is name of image is to be display.

Example :-
If image test.jpg is present in naikgroup folder in G drive than

imshow('G:\naikgroup\test.jpg')

if image test present in tif format than

imshow('G:\naikgroup\test.tif')

if more than 1 image have to display than use figure before imshow.

figure
imshow('path\image_name.jpg')

Example :-
if you want to display 2 image called test1.jpg and test2.jpg from naik folder in G drive than code will be

figure
imshow('G:\naik\test1.jpg')
figure
imshow('G:\naik\test2.jpg')

Note:- change path according to your image present in drive.

Matlab Can save image in hard disk in any format using imwrite command.

imwrite(image_name,'path/image_name.jpg','jpg');

imwrite is command used to save image in hard disk.

image_name is name of image.

path is dir where you want to save image.

example :-
if you want have image named test in jpg format in naikgroup folder in D drive.

imwrite(test,'D:\naikgroup\test.jpg','jpg');
