This package lets you use the ZED stereo camera in Python 3. The Python API is a wrapper around the ZED SDK which is written in C++ optimized code. We make the ZED SDK accessible from external Python code using Cython.
Prerequisites
To start using the ZED SDK in Python, you will need to install the following dependencies on your system: •ZED SDK 4.0 and its dependency CUDA For the ZED SDK 3.8 compatible version, use the zedsdk_3.X branch or the 3.8 release tag •Python 3.7+ x64 (Windows installer) •Cython 0.28 •Numpy 1.13 •OpenCV Python (optional) •PyOpenGL (optional) Please check your python version with the following command. The result should be 3.7 or higher. Cython and Numpy can be installed via pip. The sample dependencies can also be installed via pip Note: On Linux, it is advised to use the python3 command instead of python which by default point to python 2.7. To do so, the following packages python3-dev and python3-pip need to be installed.
Running the install script
Windows The Python install script is located in: C:\Program Files (x86)\ZED SDK\ ⚠️ Make sure you have admin access to run it in the Program Files folder, otherwise, you will have a Permission denied error. You can still copy the file into another location to run it without permissions. Linux The Python install script is located in: /usr/local/zed/ Run the script: To install it later or on a different environment run : That's it ! The Python API is now installed.
Code
Import the packages in your Python terminal or file like this: Vectors operations like norm, sum, square, dot, cross, distance but also simple operations can be done with Numpy package.
Run the tutorials
The tutorials provide simple projects to show how to use each module of the ZED SDK.
Run the examples
Please refer to the examples README for more informations.
"Numpy binary incompatiblity"
This error usually means numpy isn't installed. To install it, simply run these commands :
To compile the ZED SDK Python wrapper go to src folder to get the cython sources and instructions.
Note : This step is not useful for users of the wrapper, it is only meant to be used to extend the wrapper for advanced uses.

Make sure the ZED Python API is installed before launching the sample. Sharing image data between ZED SDK and OpenCV Python # In Python, OpenCV stores images in NumPy arrays. Since the ZED SDK uses its own sl.Mat class to store image data, we provide a function get_data() to convert the sl.Mat matrix into a NumPy array.
The ZED API provides low-level access to camera control and configuration. To use the ZED in your application, you will need to create and open a Camera object. The API can be used with two different video inputs: the ZED live video (Live mode) or video files recorded in SVO format with the ZED API (Playback mode).
The ZED SDK can be easily integrated into projects using the following programming languages: Thanks to its comprehensive API, ZED cameras can be interfaced with multiple third-party libraries and environments. Collection of guides and API reference for ZED APIs. Helps you quickly integrate ZED cameras and SDKs into your application.
