On the other hand, a lot of image processing functions such as imshow will not work correctly or rather as you may expect if the image type is double but outside the range 01. Output signal attributes, including width, dimensionality. If the input image is of class logical, then im2uint8 changes truevalued elements to 255.
If you have an array of a different type, such as double or single, then you can convert that array to an array of type uint8 by using the uint8 function. A uint8 data type contains all whole numbers from 0 to 255. Double click on a block to open block parameters, where. Learn more about im2double image processing toolbox.

J im2uint8i converts the grayscale, rgb, or binary image i to uint8, rescaling or offsetting the data as necessary if the input image is of class uint8, then the output image is identical. The im2double function does not rescale the output when the input image has single or double data type. The ic block sets the initial condition of the signal at its input port, for example, the value of the signal at the simulation start time t start.
