Hi,
I am working on a project and a small part of that project is to have an image of a spiral drawn by hand (image attached) and get the average thickness of the spiral trace/line and its no. of turns/loops.
If someone can help me with this I will be really grateful.
Thank You

I do that in my demo. Basically you get a binary image of your shape. Then you compute it's skeleton and Euclidean Distance Transform. Then multiply those two images to get the width everywhere. Then take the histogram of the image to get the distribution of widths.
Change the demo to use your image and make sure you threshold to get dark blobs instead of light blobs. Let me know if you can't figure it out.
