Pre-requisites

  1. Python 3.5
  2. Numpy, cython and pkgconfig pip3 install numpy cython pkgconfig
  3. OpenCV 3.x with Python bindings. (Tested on OpenCV 3.4.0)
    • You can use this script to automate Open CV 3.4 installation (Tested on Ubuntu 16.04).
NOTE: OpenCV 3.4.1 has a bug which causes Darknet to fail. Therefore this wrapper would not work with OpenCV 3.4.1.
