i am follow the instruction from website and youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWnVHOqTdrE

but when to the comment:
$ sudo pip install colour Adafruit_AMG88xx

the last prompt out is:
Adafruit-PureIO requires Python >=3.5.0 but the running Python is 2.7.16

then i try to:
$ sudo apt-get install python3.6

and python3.6 is installed successfully, but run again the pip install colour Adafruit_AMG88xx and get the same result.

finally the

python thermal_cam.py with error:

ImportError: No module named colour

please help

thanks for your prompt reply.
AS a freshman in linux and pi, i am trying hard but still not work:

  1. I copy the whole directory from website by
    $ sudo git clone https://github.conadafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_AGM88xx

  2. I install the setup by
    $ sudo python setup.py install

  3. and then i try to install adfruit...amg88xx
    $ sudo pip3 install adafruit_circuitPython_AMG88xx

they are success, but when i get into examples, the file still can't work

please give me some suggestion:

P.S.: i am using RPi zero w

Closing since this is not an issue with this repo.

Please make sure you are using Python 3 and be sure to follow the guide:
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-amg8833-8x8-thermal-camera-sensor/python-circuitpython#python-installation-of-amg88xx-library-8-6
There is no cloning of the repo involved.

You are using Python 2. Make sure you are using Python 3. Try invoking with python3 instead of just python.
