My second tutorial will come next week where I’ll demonstrate how to install OpenCV 3 with Python 3.5 bindings on macOS.This first tutorial covers how to install OpenCV 3 with Python 2.7 bindings on macOS.In order to help resolve any issues, problems, or confusion when installing OpenCV with Python bindings on macOS Sierra (or greater) I’ve decided to create two hyper-detailed tutorials: If you’ve tried to use one of my previous tutorials on installing OpenCV on your freshly updated Mac (Sierra or greater) you likely ran into a few errors, specifically with the QTKit.h header files.Īnd even if you were able to resolve the QTKit problem, you likely ran into more issues trying to get your CMake command configured just right.
I’ll admit it: Compiling and installing OpenCV 3 on macOS Sierra was a lot more of a challenge than I thought it would be, even for someone who has a compiled OpenCV on hundreds of machines over his lifetime. Click here to download the source code to this post
