AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute

Question

I am trying to get the depth map of two stereo images. I have taken the code from this documentation.

I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "depth.py", line 9, in <module>
    stereo = cv2.createStereoBM(numDisparities=16, blockSize=15)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'createStereoBM'

My code is:

import numpy as np
import cv2
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

imgL = cv2.imread('tsukuba_l.png',0)
imgR = cv2.imread('tsukuba_r.png',0)

stereo = cv2.createStereoBM(numDisparities=16, blockSize=15)
disparity = stereo.compute(imgL,imgR)
plt.imshow(disparity,'gray')
plt.show()

I entered the Python line interpreter, and wrote the following code:

import cv2
help(cv2)

There is no function called createStereoBM in cv2.

Is the code wrong in the link provided at the top? I am using Python 2.7.3 in Ubuntu 12.04. Is it possible that the code is meant for Python 3 and above?

Please help.

the code you're using is from the opencv master/3.0 branch. (and yes, you have to use cv2.createStereoBM() there instead of cv2.StereoBM() ) for looking at further examples, [use the 2.4 branch](https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/tree/2.4/samples/python2) instead . — berak, Feb 11 '14 at 14:21
I had to use cv2.StereoBM_create() for 3.0.0-beta version of OpenCV — fdermishin, Mar 25 '15 at 15:03

cv2.StereoBM_create(numDisparities=16, blockSize=15)

Try it. My opencv version is 3.2.

If you want to find any function working in opencv, you can try this

import(cv2)

help(cv2)

Use this function instead

stereo = cv2.StereoBM(cv2.STEREO_BM_BASIC_PRESET,ndisparities=16, SADWindowSize=15)

You can find documentation for this function here

But not works with >= 3.x. This works: https://stackoverflow.com/a/43661169/1797782 – Dzwiedziu-nkg May 25 '19 at 17:56

import numpy as np

import cv2

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

imgL = cv2.imread('l.png',0)

imgR = cv2.imread('r.png',0)

stereo = cv2.StereoBM_create(numDisparities=16, blockSize=15)

disparity = stereo.compute(imgL,imgR)

plt.imshow(disparity,'gray')

plt.show()

try to use this code is your using the code from open-cv documentation

You are getting the example from the trunk (aka devel) documentation. if you aren't using trunk version, try to find an example for your correct version.
