How to install pyrealsense2 on Mac Os?


After several attempts of installation, through pip or even source code, I had lots of errors with cmake, missing files, module not found etc. I tried with several different versions of python and pip and the most common error was ERROR: No matching distribution found for pyrealsense2. I even tried to install with brew but without success. Has anyone managed to install this module on Mac OS?


Solution

  • The only way I could install it was with the following command:

    pip install pyrealsense2 -f https://github.com/cansik/pyrealsense2-macosx/releases 
    

    It may work with other python versions, but the one I used was 3.8.8.
