OpenGL and OpenCV with python 2.7 - part 004.

Today I will continue the series of graphics processing in OpenGL and OpenCV.
The goal of this tutorial is the download and load into the python script of a youtube video.
To do that we need another two modules python.
First, I download and install the python 2.7.12 32 bit version from the internet.
C:\Python27>python.exe
Python 2.7.12 (v2.7.12:d33e0cf91556, Jun 27 2016, 15:19:22) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (
Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
First update the pip tool and install numpy python module:
C:\Python27\Scripts>python -m pip install --upgrade pip

The main reason to have the numpy python module: it is often used with OpenCV python module.
For OpenCV python module installation you need to see my tutorial.
After you install it, test the OpenCV python module:
C:\Python27>python.exe
Python 2.7.12 (v2.7.12:d33e0cf91556, Jun 27 2016, 15:19:22) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (

>>> import cv2
>>> print cv2.__version__
3.0.0
Install pafy python module.
This module help you to download video from youtube but you need also the youtube-dl python module.
So let's install the youtube-dl and pafy python modules.
C:\Python27>cd Scripts
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install youtube-dl
Collecting youtube-dl
Downloading youtube_dl-2016.12.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl (1.5MB)

C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install pafy
Collecting pafy
Downloading pafy-0.5.2-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Installing collected packages: pafy
Successfully installed pafy-0.5.2

I make a simple python script named: get_yt.py.
The source code of this script is simple:
import os
import pafy
# Download the video
video = pafy.new('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5VCjktWVD4')
print "video.title"
print video.title
print "video.rating"
print video.rating
print "video.viewcount, video.author, video.length"
print video.viewcount, video.author, video.length
print "video.duration, video.likes, video.dislikes"
print video.duration, video.likes, video.dislikes
print "video.description"
print video.description
resolution = video.getbestvideo(preftype="mp4")
print "resolution"
print resolution
input_movie = resolution.download(quiet=False)
print "input_movie"
print input_movie
print "delete movie"
os.remove(input_movie)

I used the URL of a video clip from youtube channel of Arden Cho to tested.
If you want to keep the video into your folder just remove the last line from the python script.
The result is this output:
C:\Python27>python.exe get_yt.py
video.title

OpenGL and OpenCV with python 2.7 - part 003.

If you have seen the last tutorial about OpenCV, then this tutorial comes to complete with one source code.
This source code will cut the background of webcam.
The webcam output is take by VideoCapture function.
This part of source code: np.zeros((1,65),np.float64) will return a new array of given shape and type, filled with zeros.
The result of this parts is used with function grabCut from cv2 python module.
This is the source code:

import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while(True):
    ret, img = cap.read()
    #img = cv2.imread('test002.jpg')
    mask = np.zeros(img.shape[:2],np.uint8)

    bgdModel = np.zeros((1,65),np.float64)
    fgdModel = np.zeros((1,65),np.float64)

    rect = (50,50,450,290)
    cv2.grabCut(img,mask,rect,bgdModel,fgdModel,5,cv2.GC_INIT_WITH_RECT)

    mask2 = np.where((mask==2)|(mask==0),0,1).astype('uint8')
    img = img*mask2[:,:,np.newaxis]
    cv2.imshow('frame',img)
    if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27:
        break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

The end result will be something like:

OpenGL and OpenCV with python 2.7 - part 002.

I deal today with opencv and I fix some of my errors.
One is this error I got with cv2.VideoCapture. When I  try to used with load video and createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2() i got this:

cv2.error:   C:\builds\master_PackSlaveAddon-win64-vc12-static\opencv\modules\highgui\src\window.cpp:281:  error: (-215) size.width<0 amp="" cv::imshow="" function="" i="" in="" size.height="">
You need also to have opencv_ffmpeg310.dll and opencv_ffmpeg310_64.dll into your Windows C:\Windows\System32, this will help me to play videos.
Now make sure you have the opencv version 3.1.0 because opencv come with some changes over python.
C:\Python27\python
Python 2.7.8 (default, Jun 30 2014, 16:08:48) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>import cv2
>>>print cv2.__version__
3.1.0

You can take some infos from about opencv python module - cv2 with:

>>>cv2.getBuildInformation()
...
>>>cv2.getCPUTickCount()
...
>>>print cv2.getNumberOfCPUs()
...
>>>print cv2.ocl.haveOpenCL()
True

You can also see some error by disable OpenCL:

>>>cv2.ocl.setUseOpenCL(False)
>>>print cv2.ocl.useOpenCL()
False

Now will show you how to use webcam gray and color , and play one video:
webcam color

import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while(True):
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    cv2.imshow('frame',frame)
    if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27:
        break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

webcam gray

import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while(True):
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    cv2.imshow('frame',gray)
    if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27:
        break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

play video

import cv2
from cv2 import *
capture = cv2.VideoCapture("avi_test_001.avi")
while True:
    ret, img = capture.read()
    cv2.imshow('some', img)
    if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27:
        break
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

OpenGL and OpenCV with python 2.7 - part 001.

First you need to know what version of python you use.
C:\Python27>python
Python 2.7.8 (default, Jun 30 2014, 16:08:48) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
You need also to download the OpenCV version 3.0 from here.
Then run the executable into your folder and get cv2.pyd file from \opencv\build\python\2.7\x64 and paste to \Python27\Lib\site-packages.
If you use then use 32 bit python version then use this path: \opencv\build\python\2.7\x86.
Use pip to install next python modules:
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install PyOpenGL
...
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install numpy
...
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install matplotlib
...
Let's see how is working OpenGL:
C:\Python27>python
Python 2.7.8 (default, Jun 30 2014, 16:08:48) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import OpenGL
>>> import numpy
>>> import matplotlib
>>> import cv2
>>> from OpenGL import *
>>> from numpy import *
>>> from matplotlib import *
>>> from cv2 import *
You can also use dir(module) to see more. You can import all from GL, GLU and GLUT.
>>> dir(OpenGL)
['ALLOW_NUMPY_SCALARS', 'ARRAY_SIZE_CHECKING', 'CONTEXT_CHECKING', 'ERROR_CHECKING', 'ERROR_LOGGING', 'ERROR_ON_COPY', 'FORWARD_COMPATIBLE_ONLY', 'FULL_LOGGING', 'FormatHandler', 'MODULE_ANNOTATIONS', 'PlatformPlugin', 'SIZE_1_ARRAY_UNPACK', 'STORE_POINTERS', 'UNSIGNED_BYTE_IMAGES_AS_STRING', 'USE_ACCELERATE', 'WARN_ON_FORMAT_UNAVAILABLE', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__version__', '_bi', 'environ_key', 'os', 'plugins', 'sys', 'version']
>>> from OpenGL.GL import *
>>> from OpenGL.GLU import *
>>> from OpenGL.GLUT import *
>>> from OpenGL.WGL import *
If you are very good with python OpenGL module then you can import just like this example:
>>> from OpenGL.arrays import ArrayDatatype
>>> from OpenGL.GL import (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT,
... GL_COMPILE_STATUS, GL_FALSE, GL_FLOAT, GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER,
... GL_LINK_STATUS, GL_RENDERER, GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION,
... GL_STATIC_DRAW, GL_TRIANGLES, GL_TRUE, GL_VENDOR, GL_VERSION,
... GL_VERTEX_SHADER, glAttachShader, glBindBuffer, glBindVertexArray,
... glBufferData, glClear, glClearColor, glCompileShader,
... glCreateProgram, glCreateShader, glDeleteProgram,
... glDeleteShader, glDrawArrays, glEnableVertexAttribArray,
... glGenBuffers, glGenVertexArrays, glGetAttribLocation,
... glGetProgramInfoLog, glGetProgramiv, glGetShaderInfoLog,
... glGetShaderiv, glGetString, glGetUniformLocation, glLinkProgram,
... glShaderSource, glUseProgram, glVertexAttribPointer)
Most of this OpenGL need to have a valid OpenGL rendering context.
For example you can test it with WGL ( WGL or Wiggle is an API between OpenGL and the windowing system interface of Microsoft Windows):
>>> import OpenGL
>>> from OpenGL import *
>>> from OpenGL import WGL
>>> print WGL.wglGetCurrentDC()
None
Now , let's see the OpenCV python module with s=one simple webcam python script:

import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while(True):
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    cv2.imshow('frame',gray)
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

This is result of my webcam:

Testing PyQt4 under Python 3.5.1.

Today I working well with python 3.5.1.
Most of my source code was wrote with python 2.7 and the next step was to using pip3.5 to update and upgrade some python modules.
I try to install PyQt4 with pip3.5 - not working.
So I used the old way: whl file from here.
That was good, most of the scripts was running.
The main problem was OpenGL and that will make errors when you try to use QtOpenGL.
The result of this seam to me the python 3.5.1 it's now without OpenGL features.

GLUT - Creating a fullscreen applications.

To create a fullscreen application must use the function:
glutGameModeString()
glutEnterGameMode()
Below is the source commented.

import sys
from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *

def main():
 
    # Initialize OpenGL
    glutInit(sys.argv)
    glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGB)
 
    # Configure the display output
    glutGameModeString("1024x600:32@60")

    # The application will enter fullscreen
    glutEnterGameMode()
 
    # Setup callbacks for keyboard and display
    glutKeyboardFunc(keyboard)
    glutDisplayFunc(display)
 
    # Enters the GLUT event processing loop
    glutMainLoop()
 
def keyboard(key, x, y):
    if key == 'q':
        sys.exit(0)

def display():
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT)

    # Draw a green line
    glBegin(GL_LINES)
    glColor3f(0.0,100.0,0.0)
    glVertex2f(1.0, 1.0)
    glVertex2f(-1.0, -1.0)
    glEnd()
 
    glutSwapBuffers()
 
if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

GLUT - teapot

Using GLUT library is pretty simple if you know the operating mechanism.

GLUT (pronounced like the glut in gluttony) is the OpenGL Utility Toolkit, a window system independent toolkit for writing OpenGL programs. It implements a simple windowing application programming interface (API) for OpenGL. GLUT makes it considerably easier to learn about and explore OpenGL programming. GLUT provides a portable API so you can write a single OpenGL program that works across all PC and workstation OS platforms.

To work you need to install Python (I used version 2.7) and how PyOpenGL. You'll find it here.
The python module PyOpenGL provides bindings to OpenGL, GLUT, and GLE.
The necessary steps are:
1. initialize the GLUT library :glutInit function
2. sets the initial display mode with parameters set GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DEPTH
3. initialization of the future windows with a given width/heightat a given width/height
4. Then the creation of four functions required to display, resizing, keyboard and display.These functions will be called in order to: glutCreateWindow, glutReshapeFunc, glutKeyboardFunc, glutDisplayFunc.
5. calling these functions.
6. calling glutMainLoop to enter the GLUT event processing loop.
Here's source code.

import sys
from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GLU import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *


def display():
    glEnable( GL_LIGHTING )
    glEnable( GL_LIGHT0 )
    glEnable( GL_DEPTH_TEST )

    glClear( GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT )
    glPushMatrix()
    gluLookAt( 0,2.5,-7, 0,0,0, 0,1,0 )
    glutSolidTeapot( 2.5 )
    glPopMatrix()
    glFlush()

def reshape(w,h):
    glViewport( 0, 0, w, h )
    glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION )
    glLoadIdentity()
    gluPerspective( 45.0, 1.0*w/h, 0.1, 100.0 )
    glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW )
    glLoadIdentity()

def keyboard(key,x,y):
    if key==chr(27): sys.exit(0)

glutInit( sys.argv )
glutInitDisplayMode( GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DEPTH )
glutInitWindowSize( 500, 400)
glutCreateWindow( 'teapot' )
glutReshapeFunc( reshape )
glutKeyboardFunc( keyboard )
glutDisplayFunc( display )
glutMainLoop()

Here's the result.

You can read more in the documentation.

PyOpenGL and PyOpenGL-accelerate 3.0.1 - latest version

First , the major error is this:

I try fix this with ... NetFx20SP2_x86.exe, not working.
I use google to donload the dll file. Is not correct way , but this fix error.
I use this PyOpenGL-3.0.1.zip to install OpenGL module under Python 2.6.2 ...
Just use this :

python setup.py install

But you can not use python on command line, because you need to add on enviroment vars...
Just try something like this...

C:\>set PATH=C:\Python26;%PATH%

To see the result , just use:

C:\path

You can test the OpenGL modules...

Python and OpenGL - first steps

First you need to install python .
Second you need to install pyopengl module.
This is easy if we use some linux distributions.
On Fedora we can use command yum.
On Debian and Ubuntu we can use apt-get.
At last we need some basicaly examples.
We can get some examples from:PyOpenGL-Demo
But this is not all we will need more.
To go on next step we will need to read OpenGL specifications.
Try to use search on internet to see more about OpenGL.
