I’ve installed OpenCV 4.8.0 with CUDA support on Jetpack 4.6.1 but I’m unable to use it with python3:

```auto
(vision) nikhil@nikhil-desktop:~$ opencv_version
4.8.0
(vision) nikhil@nikhil-desktop:~$ python3
Python 3.8.0 (default, Dec 9 2021, 17:53:27) 
[GCC 8.4.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import cv2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

```

Please help me resolve this issue.

@AastaLLL I’ve resolved this issue, I had the incorrect opencv path on the bashrc file.
