Lightweight, simple, C++, CPU-based voxelizer based on the implementation of https://github.com/sylefeb/VoxSurf. For further details on the algorithm, refer to their repository.

Voxelizer implementation requires no further dependencies. It operates on .stl files and outputs a .csv file which is intented to be processed further with Paraview.

This voxelizer implementation ouputs the same results as the base implementation of VoxSurf without any further dependencies. Additionally, it has the option to scale the voxelization to the same size as the underlying .stl file.

Clone the repository to your local machine and to the project build directory. It comes with a Makefile, therefore you only have run the make command for installation.

git clone https://github.com/alhermann/MyVox.git
cd ~/MyVox/build
make clean && make

Make sure to use the correct C++ compiler for your machine. For MacOS change inside the Makefile to clang++, for Linux machines use CC = g++ (default) and on Windows machines use icpc or g++ from the MinGW compiler.

Pass an .stl file path as an argument. The voxelized output will be placed inside the build directory. Optionally pass a fourth argument as the voxel resolution.

./MyVox ../model.stl ../model.csv
