open3d.org | Documentation | Quick Start | Build from Source | Python API | C++ API | Contribute | Demo | Forum

Open3D is an open-source library that supports rapid development of software that deals with 3D data. The Open3D frontend exposes a set of carefully selected data structures and algorithms in both C++ and Python. The backend is highly optimized and is set up for parallelization. We welcome contributions from the open-source community.
