This week, I installed PyCharm and attempted to install all the necessary packages to it (nimpy and cv2). I tried to learn how to run a file remotely through the interpreter and how to organize my files in one location.<\/p>\n

Currently I’m having trouble setting up my project in PyCharm (it won’t detect the necessary modules and I’ve been trying to figure out how to fix that)<\/p>\n

\"sigh\"<\/a><\/p>\n

EDIT: After spending some hours trying to figure out the issue, I found out that I had Python 2.7 installed from a while ago and that was getting mixed up with the 3.6 that I had installed recently, so that may have been causing PyCharm to not recognize the packages. I had the wrong interpreter selected in the IDE settings, so selecting the correct one fixed the issue!<\/p>\n

\"yes!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to that, I tested out cv2’s live video\/webcam functionality in PyCharm and started working on face\/eye\/blob detection. I used the code from\u00a0http:\/\/docs.opencv.org\/3.0-beta\/doc\/py_tutorials\/py_gui\/py_video_display\/py_video_display.html
\nand running the program correctly opened the laptop’s webcam (how cool) but I couldn’t get the window to close properly (it would keep reopening).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now that I actually have some foundation and idea of what’s going on, the plan for next week is what the initial plan was for this week – to actually start playing with blob and face detection from pictures and live webcam.<\/p>\n
