Configuration of the PYTHON-OPENCV under Windows

Configuration of PYTHON-OPENCV under the Windows platform

1. Introduction

OpenCV

OpenCV is an open-source cross-platform computer Vision library that was built by Intel in 1999 and is now supported by Willow garage.

Python:

Python is an object-oriented, interpretive computer programming language invented by Gudio van Rossum in 1989.

2. The configuration of PYTHON-OPENCV under Windows system:

Platform: windows10-64-bit operating system

1) Download Python 2.7.11

: https://www.python.org/downloads/

Download directly after installation, the general default installation directory is C:\python27;

2) Configure environment variables for Python

Add the Python path to the environment variable.

2) Install Pip

: https://pypi.python.org/packages/41/27/9a8d24e1b55bd8c85e4d022da2922cb206f183e2d18fee4e320c9547e751/ Pip-8.1.1.tar.gz#md5=6b86f11841e89c8241d689956ba99ed7

I chose pip-8.11.tar.gz here.

Unzip after download is complete

Press Start +r, enter CMD to enter command line.

Next go to your decompression path and install it.

1 CD your decompression path 2 > Python setup.py install

3) Install related modules

Restart the command line, and then enter the following code to install the module numpy,matplotlib

1 > pip install numpy2 > Pip install matplotlib

5) Download OpenCV

Https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/files/opencv-win/3.1.0/opencv-3.1.0.exe/download

After the download is complete, the installation path defaults to C:\OPENCV;

Move Cv2.pyd under C:\opencv\build\python\2.7\x64 in OpenCV to lib\site-packages in the Python installation directory

6) Testing

Open command line, input > Python

Enter import cv2

If there is no response, proof of loading success
