Hello @zhangYQHBAU,

I think I encountered the same issue, and if it's the same as mine, the actual error is not c_POSITION_TYPE not being a type identifier. In fact, if you scroll to the top of the long list of errors (quite too long), you would find out that the actual error is that pyzed/sl_c.pxd wasn't found by pyzed/sl.pyx.

The way to test whether this is the actual error or not, is to go to pyzed/sl.pyx, to this line:

zed-python-api/src/pyzed/sl.pyx::28:: from sl_c cimport ( String, to_str, Camera as c_Camera, ERROR_CODE as c_ERROR_CODE, toString

And add before it:

import sys
sys.path.append('/PATH-TO-ZED-API-LOCATION/zed-python-api/src')
from pyzed.sl_c cimport ( String, to_str, Camera as c_Camera, ERROR_CODE as c_ERROR_CODE, toString

Hopefully this would solve it for you.
