MonkeyGL (Monkey Graphic Library)

A fast 3d render library for the medical imaging.
All the calculations are based on the cuda (@Nvidia company).
Totally independent of the OpenGL context.

requirements (so far)

ubuntu 20.04 LTS
cuda 11.6.0
intel cpu
g++ (Ubuntu 9.4.0-1ubuntu1~20.04.1) 9.4.0
Python 3.9.5 python3-dev python3.9-dev

install cuda

linux (tested in Ubuntu)

./install/cuda_install_ubuntu.sh

build project

linux (tested in Ubuntu)

command: bash ./build.sh {project name} {build_type}
project name: cpp / pybind
build type: Debug / Release / Clean
project cpp: will get c++ shared library (libMonkeyGL.so) in ./build, which can be called by cpp.
project pybind: will get pybind11 shared library (pyMonkeyGL.so) in ./pybind11_interface/build, which can be called in python.
