OpenCV for Python
OpenCV is a library for computer vision and machine learning. We will use OpenCV to stream live video from a webcam.
To install OpenCV onto our Raspberry Pi, do the following:
- In Thonny, click on Tools | Open system shell.... Verify that you get a Terminal window.
- Type in pip install opencv-python:
- Verify that the opencv-python and numpy libraries install successfully.
If you are having issues installing OpenCV for Python, you may have to build it from scratch. Refer to the instructions at this link: https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-opencv/.
