Example Code for Python - Object Contour Recognition Based on Computer OpenCV

This example demonstrates how to use OpenCV on a computer to recognize object contours.

Hardware Preparation

Software Preparation

  1. Python IDLE (https://www.python.org/)

Other Preparation Work

  • Burn the code to the module (use the code from Section 5.3 or 5.4).

  • Install the Python environment (https://www.python.org/). Skip this step if it is already installed.

  • Install the opencv-python library:

    • Press Win+R, enter "cmd" to open the command window.

    • Enter "pip install opencv-python" to install the opencv-python library.

  • Open Python IDLE, go to File->Open..., select the Python file (use "openCV_5_3.py" if you are using the example from Section 5.3; use "openCV_5_4.py" if you are using the example from Section 5.4). Press F5 in the new window that appears to see the image.

Additional Information

  • When using "openCV_5_3.py", remember to modify the IP address parameter.

  • When using "openCV_5_4.py", remember to modify the camera_index parameter.
