ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

What does this error mean?

This error occurs when the OpenCV (Open Computer Vision) library is not installed in your current Python environment. While the library is imported as 'cv2', the package name used for installation is 'opencv-python'.

Common Causes

OpenCV is not installed in the current virtual environment
You have multiple Python versions and installed it for the wrong one
The library was installed as 'cv2' (incorrect) instead of 'opencv-python'

How to Fix It (3 Solutions)

1

Install via pip (Standard)

Run the correct installation command in your terminal. Use 'opencv-python' for the main library.

Code

pip install opencv-python

2

Install with 'contrib' modules

If you need extra algorithms (like SIFT/SURF), install the contrib version.

Code

pip install opencv-contrib-python

3

Fix for Anaconda / Conda

If you use Conda, use the following command instead of pip.

Code

conda install -c conda-forge opencv
