txt file won't be written in python in windows, it works on mac












0















I wrote a code that takes a video and recognizes face of a human and calculate the distance of the human from the camera (which is the eye of a robot). I need the data in a txt format so I am writing it in the distance_data.txt but my file is always empty.
I had run the code in a mac computer and it worked perfectly fine and the file was not empty.



import cv2
import time
import numpy as np

person_cascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier('human_recognition.txt')
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('oct23_2.avi')

# Define the codec and create VideoWriter object
fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'XVID')
out = cv2.VideoWriter('oct23_2out.avi',fourcc, 20.0, (640,360))

distance_data = open('distance_data.txt','w')

timer=-1
while (cap.isOpened()):
r, frame = cap.read()
if r:

frame = cv2.resize(frame,(640,360)) # Downscale to improve frame rate
gray_frame = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_RGB2GRAY) # Haar-cascade classifier needs a grayscale image
cv2.imshow('gray',gray_frame)
#print(gray_frame.type())
rects = person_cascade.detectMultiScale(gray_frame)
max=0
#print(rects)

(x, y, w, h) = rects[0]
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x,y), (x+w ,y+h),(0,255,0),2)
#fshape = frame.shape
#fheight = fshape[0]
#fwidth = fshape[1]
timer=timer+1
xpos=(0.03421)*(w*w)-8.1183*w+521.841
yn=360-y
heightinvid=0.0197377*yn-0.0194
realhieght=((-0.4901)*(heightinvid* heightinvid)+4.4269*heightinvid+8.30356)/ 0.927183854

horizontalp=x+w/2



#print(timer+1 , ",", xpos, )
#if (xpos<=41 and xpos>=40):
#print("height of the human is ", realhieght+149, "or", (-0.000184)*yn*yn+0.08506*yn+8.43461+149)
cm_deviation_in_x=-0.02033898*(320-horizontalp)
#print("Horizontal position of human is ", cm_deviation_in_x, " cm.")
newxpos = format (xpos, '.3f')
distance_data.write("Hi")
distance_data.write(str(newxpos))
distance_data.write(',')
distance_data.write(str(format(cm_deviation_in_x, '.3f')))
distance_data.write("rn")

#print(w)
#print("x position of the human is = ",xpos)
#fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'XVID')
#out = cv2.VideoWriter('output25.avi',fourcc, 20.0, (fwidth,fheight))

cv2.imshow("preview", frame)
out.write(frame)

k = cv2.waitKey(10)
#print(w,h)
if k & 0xFF == ord("q"): # Exit condition
break
distance_data.flush()
cap.release()

cv2.destroyAllWindows()

    Are you sure this is even a writing problem? Do you know for sure the capture file is being read properly in Windows? Does it exist? Do you actually enter the while loop? Do you make it past the "if r:" statement?

  • don't write carriage return, it's automatically added in text mode distance_data.write("rn") => distance_data.write("n")

  • yes I do enter the loop because I could print all the data in the console. I do however get this error at the end: (x, y, w, h) = rects[0] IndexError: tuple index out of range @PhilB

  • also distance_data.flush() should be distance_data.close()
