Dr.TVAM is an inverse rendering framework for tomographic volumetric additive manufacturing. It is based on the Mitsuba renderer, and uses physically-based differentiable rendering to optimize patterns for TVAM. In particular, it supports:
- Scattering printing media
- Arbitrary vial shapes
- Arbitrary projector motions
- An improved discretization scheme for the target shape
Installing Dr.TVAM can be done via pip:
pip install drtvam
We provide a convenience command-line tool drtvam to run simple optimizations. You can run it as:
drtvam path/to/config.json
Please refer to the documentation for details on the configuration file format.
Dr.TVAM provides a set of useful abstractions to implement a wide variety of custom TVAM setups. We show examples in the documentation to get you started.
The full documentation for this project, along with jupyter notebooks explaining the basics of implementing your own optimizations in our framework, can be found on readthedocs.
