3D_PC_visualizer

In this repository there is the code for a Point Cloud object visualizer using the Open3D library

Installation

1. Create a Python3 virtual environment and activate it.
2. Install Open3D library
   1. git clone --recursive https://github.com/intel-isl/Open3D.
   2. cd Opem3D && mkdir build && cd build .
   3. cmake ...
   4. Ubuntu: make -j$(nproc) / Mac OS: make -j$(sysctl -n hw.physicalcpu).
   5. make install-pip-package.

Note:

If you are going to use the visualizer from Mac OS, before installing the Open3D library, you must update TCL / Tk and the Python version of the system. This is because the Python that comes by default with Mac OS has a very old version of TCL / TK and proper operation of tkinter is not allowed. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Download and install Python version 3.8.2 from the official website www.python.org.
2. Download and install the new version of TCL / TK from here.
3. Create the Python environment with the new Python's version.
