Installation

pip install svox

Documentation

Please see https://svox.readthedocs.io

Troubleshooting

If you get SIGSEGV upon importing, check that your CUDA runtime and PyTorch CUDA versions match. That is, nvcc --version should match (Python) torch.version.cuda

Misc

SVOX stands for sparse voxel octree extension.
