cv2.error: OpenCV(4.4.0) C:\Users\appveyor\AppData\Local\Temp\1\pip-req-build-2y91i_7w\opencv\modules\imgproc\src\color.cpp:182: error: (-215:Assertion failed) !_src.empty() in function 'cv::cvtColor' code example
Example: error: (-215:Assertion failed) !_src.empty() in function 'cv::cvtColor'
This error happened because the image didn't load properly.
So you have problem with the previous line cv2.imread my suggestion is :
check if the images exist in the path you give
check the count variable if he have valid number
