OpenCV is an image processing/computer vision library and therefore it needs to be able to load standard image file formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, etc.

Next, we need to install some OpenCV-specific prerequisites. You most likely already have pkg-config installed on Ubuntu 18.04, but be sure to include it in the install command for sanity. Before we begin, open a terminal or connect via SSH.įrom there, we need to refresh/upgrade the pre-installed packages/libraries with the apt-get package manager: $ sudo apt-get updateįollowed by installing developer tools: $ sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake unzip pkg-config
Step #1: Install OpenCV dependencies on Ubuntu 18.04Īll steps today will be accomplished in the terminal/command line. That’s easy enough, so let’s get on with installing OpenCV on Ubuntu 18.04. Let’s see which version is installed on our system: $ python3 -versionĪnd now, let’s launch a Python 3 shell just to test the waters: $ python3 To run Python 3 on Ubuntu 18.04, you must call python3 explicitly. Let’s familiarize ourselves with Python 3 on Ubuntu 18.04. Step #0: Get comfortable - you’ll be using Python 3.6 If you need Python 2.7 support, read this entire guide first and then check the first question of the Troubleshooting your install (FAQ) section near the bottom of this blog post for some Python 2.7 pointers. Given that, this guide supports Python 3. You can still install Python 2.7 if-needed, but now Python 3 is the default on the OS. One major change in Ubuntu 18.04 is that they’ve dropped Python 2.7 completely. Note: While you won’t see an Ubuntu 17.10 specific guide here on my blog (non -LTS), these instructions may work with 17.10 (you’ll just have to proceed at your own risk).

To learn how to stand up your Ubuntu 18.04 system with OpenCV, just keep reading. Let’s get down to business and install OpenCV with Python 3 bindings.

That said, if you want to upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 and use the latest-and-greatest, I think you’ll be quite pleased with the new changes in Ubuntu 18.04. Support for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS continues until April 2021 so rest-assured - you don’t have to upgrade your 16.04 OS to continue working on your image processing projects. On April 26, 2018, they’ve released a new Long Term Support (LTS) version of Ubuntu for the community: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver). The folks at Canonical have been working hard.
In the past, I’ve authored a handful of installation guides for Ubuntu: In this blog post you will learn how to install OpenCV on Ubuntu 18.04.
