I currently have in my code a imshow command, then followed by drawnow. My program is processing data from a acquisition card and then displaying the results in real time. I am trying to do this ~15.3 times per second. But the imshow/drawnow combo is to slow processing wise, and it takes too long so my data acquisition cards memory gets filled, and errors out.

Is there anyway to make it faster?

imshow(-1 * squeeze(Pol1ChanACard1Avg),[],'Parent',imagePlot1, 'border','tight');
imshow(-1 * squeeze(Pol2ChanACard1Avg),[],'Parent',imagePlot2, border','tight');
drawnow;

displaydata = - squeeze(Pol1ChanACard1Avg);
p1 = imshow(displaydata, [], 'Parent', imagePlot1, 'border', 'tight');
p2 = imshow(displaydata, [], 'Parent', imagePlot2, 'border', 'tight');

then in the loop,

displaydata = - squeeze(Pol1ChanACard1Avg);
set(p1, 'CData', displaydata);
set(p2, 'CData', displaydata);

Thanks!

I need to fullscreen programmatically generated images for a technical application.

I had been using the fullscreen function (https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/11112-fullscreen) .The best time I could get was .03s to refresh the frame. It was very stable, but this was unsatisfying for the application.

Using:

hFig = gcf;

hAx = gca;

% set the figure to full screen

set(hFig,'units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 1 1]);

% set the axes to full screen

set(hAx,'Unit','normalized','Position',[0 0 1 1]);

% hide the toolbar

set(hFig,'menubar','none')

% to hide the title

set(hFig,'NumberTitle','off');

frame = %generate image here%

p1 = imshow(frame, [], 'Parent', hAx, 'border', 'tight');

for loop...

frame = %generate image here%

tic;

set(p1, 'CData', frame);

toc;

end

I am now closer to .005

Big thanks for an order of magnitude improvement ( Walter Roberson and Geoff Hayes in https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/180694-fullscreen-of-a-figure-with-no-borders-and-toolbar )

When I do it that way, the image is not updated though.

Before loop (y is just initial data)

      displaydata1 = y;
      displaydata2 = y;
      p1 = imshow(displaydata1, [], 'Parent', imagePlot1, 'border', 'tight');
      p2 = imshow(displaydata2, [], 'Parent', imagePlot2, 'border', 'tight');

In the loop

displaydata1 = - squeeze(Pol1ChanACard1Avg);
displaydata2 = - squeeze(Pol1ChanACard1Avg);
set(p1, 'CData', displaydata1);
set(p2, 'CData', displaydata2);
drawnow;

But the image(s) do not update.

How about if you switch to imagesc() instead of imshow(,[]) ?

Shane, this should have been a comment to Walter's Answer, not an answer in itself. Directly writing to cdata will be the fastest way but like you found out, it does not scale the intensity for each image individually. You would have to do that in advance and use the same intensity scale all the time. If you do want to adjust it for each image, then you're back to using a function that does that like imagesc and imshow and unfortunately you're slower again. I guess you could do it yourself by examining the range of each image and adjust the range to be wider only when you needed to expand the range, but that would probably be slow also since the functions do that internally, though you could save time by only widening the scale, which would happen for fewer and fewer images as you go along, and not narrowing it or widening it for each image.
