Great stuff, it did work.
If you don't mind explaining what exactly this is doing?
From what I see, we call the picamera on a different GUI kit "QtGlPreview", then from that preview we can actually get the frame data and use cv2 with it.
I would like to try to find a way to not display the preview, but it doesn't seem like that is how this works.
But I can still do all the cv2 calculations with the frame it looks like, just can't display it unless I use cv2.imshow which then I have 2 display windows.
Thank you for the quick response.
Here is my code for reference:
