opencv-python VS librealsense

Extra stuff like type checking and annotations are definitely not the reason why python became that popular and widely adapted and used, but it certainly doesn't hurt to add and use them.

To be clear, I'm not expecting people to start adding generics to their quick hacked together Python scripts (in fact please don't do that). Instead, if you're building a library or maintaining a larger Python codebase, a lot of these start becoming very useful. A lot of the typing features I mentioned are already used by Python under the hood, and that a lot of Python developers just take for granted.

Case in point, the python-opencv (https://github.com/opencv/opencv-python) library has basically no types and it's an absolute pain to work with.

BTW thats a really good SO thread, thanks for linking it!

Have you ever felt like your photos needed a little extra touch to stand out? Well, get ready because we're about to learn a cool Python trick! We're going to take ordinary photos and turn them into awesome pencil sketches using Python and OpenCV. This will make your pictures look like they were drawn by hand!

There are several modules that would allow you to process images in Python. Two of the perhaps most famous ones are PIL (https://pypi.org/project/Pillow/, also known as pillow), and opencv (https://pypi.org/project/opencv-python/).

opencv-python: OpenCV for Python

Tool: Data collected using Python opencv, and a rudimentary OCR built from scratch. Graphic created with Microsoft Excel.

cv2: https://pypi.org/project/opencv-python/

I would try installing opencv-python on its own to see if you can learn more: https://pypi.org/project/opencv-python/

I've been googling and reading for a while but I'm very unsure about which tools I need, which tools will help me achieve what I want the easiest way. What about (pylivestream)[https://pypi.org/project/pylivestream/] for example? Will this do the job for me? What about a lower level approach including (pyopencv)[https://pypi.org/project/opencv-python/]? What about a higher level approach using (vidgear)[https://github.com/abhiTronix/vidgear], which seems promising but I don't feel confident in assessing if it's the tool I really need?

This is likely to be buggy and frustrating, and it's very likely that you'll need to use OpenCV to preprocess the screenshot. Not my idea of a good time!

I think it is more along the lines of the Intel Realsense camera. It may even be from Intel.

Hello, Im trying to run this program: https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/tree/master/examples/save-to-disk

My elegant, state of the art solution, is a modification of the code found here https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/development/wrappers/python/examples/opencv_pointcloud_viewer.py Some time before line 295 I use open cv to open the video device and poll the frames, then on line 296 I swap color_image with my new frame.... It kindof works, now I need to align the image and depth

Not sure if you have sorted it now but did a quick search up on the internet. Their github page has some installation instructions and as others have said you forgot to add the public server key. (source: https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/doc/distribution_linux.md)

ok folks, I got an answer from the guy from intel and he pointed to me a github discussion. That post mostly answer my question. D435 was able to pick up small thin object in 3d point cloud so i am going for D435 for my chili.
