About
This project demonstrates the use of USD Python APIs via Google Colaboratory notebook.
The goal is to make it easy to:
- Try code snippets without building or installing Pixar's Universal Scene Description (USD) locally;
- Share code snippets without copy/pasting files and scripts to a local machine, thus mitigating some security concerns;
- Provide repro steps when submitting issues to USD's GitHub repository;
- etc.
Sample Notebooks
A few sample notebooks inspired from Colin Kennedy's excellent USD Cookbook:
| Notebook | Google Colab link |
|---|---|
| Flattening a USD Stage |
|
| Fast export |
|
| Get SDF Prim path |
|
| SDF change block |

Additional Colaboratory links for further advanced CG studies:
Although not directly USD specific, the following repo of Google Colaboratory links provides a good long list of CG related deep learning notebooks as a bridge to what could be possible with USD + notebooks and literate programming.
