What is the current status of Python OpenCV interface i.e. the opencv module?
\OpenCV\samples\python\contours.py gives following ERROR: OpenCV Python version of contours Traceback (most recent call last): File "\OpenCV\samples\python\contours.py", line 6, in ? from opencv import cv ImportError: No module named opencv but I can't find any hints towards a opencv Python module. Claudio P.S. OpenCV means IntelĀ® Open Source Computer Vision Library. It is a collection of C functions and a few C++ classes that implement some popular Image Processing and Computer Vision algorithms. http://www.intel.com/technology/computing/opencv/overview.htm This is the best what I was able to find using Google, but it seems to lead nowhere: http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:0XTwiKGzflYJ:www.ient.rwth-aachen.de/team/asbach/opencv-python.html+OpenCV+python+module&hl=de dated 2005-02-02 (the original page was not available, but Google has a cache :/): Before putting a lot of effort in SWIG wrapping of OpenCV ourselves, we searched the web for already existing Python wrappers. There has been some work on the topic, but none that satisfied our needs, since we're interested in wrappers for the current and future OpenCV releases that provide access to the data structure internals.: a.. http://www.swig.org/ - The SWIG homepage b.. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=754443&group_id=1645&atid=101645 - SWIG Bug ???[754443] conversion of preprocessor math", one of the bugs that make direct SWIG wrapping of OpenCV headers impossible. c.. http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~rstancha/oss.html - Basic SWIG wrapping for Python and OpenCV (see above). This is where we took PIL and Numeric convertor ideas from. d.. http://members.tripod.com/~edcjones/pycode.html - An older attempt to SWIG wrapping OpenCV for Python. Uses manually rewritten OpenCV headers that are not portable to current OpenCV releases (Beta 3 and Beta 4 not working). e.. http://blueruby.mydns.jp/opencv/index.rbx?cmd=view;name=top - Ruby wrappres for OpenCV (see above).
