I was working on a sign language detection project on jupyter notebook. While running the code for live detection I encountered an error as shown below:
OpenCV(4.5.1) C:\Users\appveyor\AppData\Local\Temp\1\pip-req-build-1drr4hl0\opencv\modules\highgui\src\window.cpp:651: error: (-2:Unspecified error) The function is not implemented. Rebuild the library with Windows, GTK+ 2.x or Cocoa support. If you are on Ubuntu or Debian, install libgtk2.0-dev and pkg-config, then re-run cmake or configure script in function 'cvShowImage'
The code that caused this error is:
while True:
ret, frame = cap.read()
image_np = np.array(frame)
input_tensor = tf.convert_to_tensor(np.expand_dims(image_np, 0), dtype=tf.float32)
detections = detect_fn(input_tensor)
num_detections = int(detections.pop('num_detections'))
detections = {key: value[0, :num_detections].numpy()
for key, value in detections.items()}
detections['num_detections'] = num_detections
# detection_classes should be ints.
detections['detection_classes'] = detections['detection_classes'].astype(np.int64)
label_id_offset = 1
image_np_with_detections = image_np.copy()
viz_utils.visualize_boxes_and_labels_on_image_array(
image_np_with_detections,
detections['detection_boxes'],
detections['detection_classes']+label_id_offset,
detections['detection_scores'],
category_index,
use_normalized_coordinates=True,
max_boxes_to_draw=5,
min_score_thresh=.5,
agnostic_mode=False)
cv2.imshow('object detection', cv2.resize(image_np_with_detections, (800, 600)))
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
cap.release()
break
NB: I installed OpenCV using using pip install.
I saw this solution under the comment of the first answer by Karthik Thilakan:
pip uninstall opencv-python-headless -y
pip install opencv-python --upgrade
This worked for me in the conda environment.
