Instant-ngp helper

This spaghetti code needs a rewrite. I dont care enough about this project anymore for that.

This is a helper for using instant-ngp.

How to use

First install:

  • Visual Studio 2019 (Desktop development with C++)
  • Cuda 11.6
  • Python 3.9 or 3.10
  • git

Then clone this repository and run install.py in command prompt. Then close the command prompt.

python install.py

Put your video file in the instant-ngp-helper\instant-ngp\tmp directory, or if you have images put make a new folder in the instant-ngp-helper\instant-ngp\tmp directory called "images". Then start a new cmd instance, and run run.py.

python run.py

Here you can select to run colmap with input images, an input video, run instant-ngp NeRF, or delete everything from the /tmp directory. You will still need to confirm colmap in the command prompt.
