This package contains a small library to generate random views around an object. The input is given through a mesh and views are generated according to certain boundaries (angles, scale, in-plane rotation). The outputs are OpenCV cv::Mat for depth, RGB and mask.
Two versions exist: one based on GLUT and one on OSMesa. The first ones requires you have an OpenGL context and therefore a window manager. The second is pure software and is therefore the one to use if you want to run the code on an infrastructure without GUIS’s (e.g. on a cluster). It is slower though.
By default, the GLUT one is compiled as OSMesa 9.0 seems to have a few problems these days.
