Hi,
I've been trying to run the python files on my mac but every time I face the same error.

File "create_gestures.py", line 64, in store_images
imgCrop = img[y:y+h, x:x+w]

File "fun_util.py", line 53, in recognize
imgCrop = img[y:y+h, x:x+w]
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

File "recognize_gesture.py", line 96, in recognize
imgCrop = img[y:y+h, x:x+w]
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

What do you think might be the issue

I believe the issue lie in the function cv2.VideoCapture(1). Have you check your camera driver in Mac was installed properly or did you use the correct device?

Hello pvqthang,

I've been working with openCV library in other projects and cv2.videocapture() was working fine in all of them.

Read the docs of the VideoCapture method of OpenCV. You will be able to solve the error.

Try cv2.videocapture(0), the system will use your default camera on your pc and it should work

@EvilPort2 As a matter of good coding practice you might want to catch exception for hardware dependencies.

The bug has been fixed
