ImportError: No module named cv2

Solution 1
The fastest and cleanest way is to run pip
. It's a clean convenient tool for Python packages.
Just run:
pip install opencv-python
or C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe install opencv-python
Solution 2
The easiest way to install OpenCV on Windows is to simply copy the cv2.pyd
file into Python's site-packages
directory (e.g. C:\python27\Lib\site-packages
).
To get the cv2.pyd
file, download and extract the latest version of the OpenCV installation executable from http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/files/opencv-win/ and browse the extracted folder to find the file in the relevant build
directory (e.g. build\python\x86\2.7
).

import numpy as np import cv2 from matplotlib import pyplot as plt img = cv2.imread('1.jpg',0) orb = cv2.ORB() kp = orb.detect(img,None) kp, des = orb.compute(img, kp) img2 = cv2.drawKeypoints(img,kp,color=(0,255,0), flags=0) plt.imshow(img2),plt.show()
In here, I have installed numpy and opencv in my windows operating system. But i can't find out the proper way to add cv2 module.

Shatil Haque over 8 yearsI've also copy cv2.pyd file into site-packages, but now there occurring a new error. "ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found." @figs

101 over 8 yearsThat could be related to something else, e.g. importing
numpy
ormatplotlib
. Try a much simpler script that only importscv2
