Alongside this I would also suggest installing the latest nVida CUDA GPU webdriver, which as of this writing is 387.10.10.10.40.135. If you’ve already upgraded to Mojave or later, your only option is to install and boot from High Sierra on a separate disk. Second, you’re going to need to install CUDA Toolkit 10.1, which is only officially compatible with OS X 10.13 (High Sierra), so you may also need to upgrade to the latest version of High Sierra (but not Mojave!) if you haven’t already. If you have an nVidia GPU listed there, you can check its compute capability on the nVidia CUDA GPUs page.
This is probably a pretty small portion of all Macs sold, but you can check your GPU by looking in “About This Mac” from the Apple icon in the top left corner of the screen, under “Graphics”. System Requirementsįirst off, your Mac will currently need an nVidia GPU with a CUDA compute capability of 2.0 or greater. Note that this is intended as a first step for Mac users wishing to experiment with and improve the AliceVision/Meshroom software, and as a result these instructions may become outdated with time.
As a result, I’ve compiled a Homebrew tap which includes the necessary formulae, and will use this post to outline how to use them to get up and running. Unfortunately, compiling and using either of these programs on Mac OS X is not exactly straightforward. The Homebrew formula was also updated on to AliceVision 2.2.0 to support Meshroom 2019.2.0.ĪliceVision and its Meshroom program are an exciting new free and open-source pipeline for photogrammetry processing.
NOTE: This guide was updated on to recommend using CUDA 10.1 and Xcode 10.1 versions. If you want to run AliceVision/Meshroom on a modern Mac, your best bet is to wait for AliceVision to support building without CUDA. UPDATE: I no longer have access to any CUDA-compatible Macs running macOS High Sierra, and am unable to update this guide or the related Homebrew formulas.
