No module named ‘picamera'

Question

I followed this website ( https://www.pyimagesearch.com/2015/03/30/accessing-the-raspberry-pi-camera-with-opencv-and-python/ ) to set my picamera, but I have a problem with the picamera module. I did install the picamera module, and this picture is from pip freeze.

You can see I have picamera 1.13 already, but when I try test_image.py, it says "No module named 'picamera'".

I have uninstalled and installed many times, but the error still exist. How do I fix this?

test_image.py

# import the necessary packages
from picamera.array import PiRGBArray
from picamera import PiCamera
import time
import cv2

# initialize the camera and grab a reference to the raw camera capture
camera = PiCamera()
rawCapture = PiRGBArray(camera)

# allow the camera to warmup
time.sleep(0.1)

# grab an image from the camera
camera.capture(rawCapture, format="bgr")
image = rawCapture.array

# display the image on screen and wait for a keypress
cv2.imshow("Image", image)
cv2.waitKey(0)

Answer 1

for python3 you have to just try this below commands.keep in mind that you need to open terminal in home directory.

sudo -H apt install python3-picamera
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade picamera[array]

let me know if it works!

Answer 2

When you run the command pip3 install picamera , it will show that the requirement is already satisfied followed by a path , provided if you have already installed picamera. Now copy that path and include it in your program as follows:

    import sys
    sys.path.append('paste the copied path here')
    from picamera.array import PiRGBArray
    from picamera import PiCamera

我遇到了同样的问题，直到我注意到我没有在 PiCamera 中大写 c

Answer 4

Try the following commands from: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/software/python.md

I'm assuming the path for the picamera module is messed up for some reason, so try purging it and reinstalling it.

Purge using:

sudo apt purge python3-picamera

First make sure everything is up to date:

sudo apt update

Then:

sudo apt install python3-picamera
