Introduction

PyTorch3D provides efficient, reusable components for 3D Computer Vision research with PyTorch.

Key features include:

  • Data structure for storing and manipulating triangle meshes
  • Efficient operations on triangle meshes (projective transformations, graph convolution, sampling, loss functions)
  • A differentiable mesh renderer

PyTorch3D is designed to integrate smoothly with deep learning methods for predicting and manipulating 3D data. For this reason, all operators in PyTorch3D:

  • Are implemented using PyTorch tensors
  • Can handle minibatches of hetereogenous data
  • Can be differentiated
  • Can utilize GPUs for acceleration

Within FAIR, PyTorch3D has been used to power research projects such as Mesh R-CNN.
