After a lot of fixed, pynari 1.2.8 was finally released earlier this week.
Biggest update: Milan Jaros (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Milan-Jaros-3) provided some first interactive samples using a 3D volume viewer he wrote:
Other updates:
- updated pip packages to use latest barney 0.9.8 that contains multiple bugfixes, and supports a more complete list of anari features and data types (e.g., spheres, cylinders, and cones)
pynari.Framecan now by read directly into a GPU buffer without first going over the host, allowing users ofpyopenglandpycudato copy frame buffers on the GPU (which is what allows the above example to run at 60+fps)- Fixed previously wrong handling of numpy arrays’
shape()s – old code wrongly interpreted these shapes in XYZ order, but they are actually ZYX. Unfortunately that also means that all existing pynari codes that usednp.reshape()to ‘properly’ declare multi-dimensional pynari arrays have to be updated accordingly. I already did that for all samples (and above viewer); apologies for the inconvenience – “mea culpa” indeed. - Several new “demo”(-and-testing!) samples for different data types such as cylinders, cones, and some more ‘interesting’ triangle mesh geometry (blatantly stolen from TSD):
