Can’t use SURF, SIFT in OpenCV

February 23, 2023 by Tarik

There is a pip source that makes this very easy.

If you have another version of opencv-python installed use this command to remove it to avoid conflicts:
```
pip uninstall opencv-python
```
Then install the contrib version with this:
```
pip install opencv-contrib-python
```

SIFT usage:

import cv2
sift = cv2.xfeatures2d.SIFT_create()
