In this code, we start by reading an image and displaying it using the imshow function. Then, we create a timer object t that executes the empty TimerFcn after a StartDelay of 5 seconds. We start the timer using start(t) and pause the function for 5 seconds using the pause function. After the pause, we stop and delete the timer and close the image window. This code will display the image for 5 seconds before closing it.
