Raspberry Pi Facial Recognition

Support

Hi All,

I’m having some difficulties with OpenCV on my Raspberry Pi, I’m looking to use it for a facial recognition project, but am running into this error:

"Traceback (most recent call last):
File “<stdin>”, line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named cv2“

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction so I can move ahead with the project.
Thanks!

Hi Jerry,

Welcome to the forum :slight_smile:

Looking at the error that you have there, it would appear that you don’t have cv2 installed, are you able to open up a terminal on your pi and put in the following command?

sudo cd /

pip3 install opencv-python

another thing to check is that when you’re importing cv2 in your code that it matches what I’ve put below as it is case sensitive.

import cv2
