In the README it says:

visr_bear: a real-time C++ implementation of the BEAR, using libear and VISR. It has a C++ API that makes it reasonably straightforward to embed into other applications; see visr_bear/include/api.hpp

If I am only interested in using bear to render in a different C++ library, is there a easier shortcut to just building that as a static lib without all the python bindings and whatnot? The visr_bear/CMakeLists.txt seems to still have Python bindings and be quite complicated.

Thanks for your time and help!

It seems the VISR project is abandoned and the "0.13" release that this project, BEAR, is using has never made it into the VISR releases.

Furthermore, it seems the 0.13 build needs to be patched in several ways to get it to work:

• pybind11 needs to be updated in order to avoid an error (invalid use of incomplete type 'PyFrameObject')
• Several files need to be edited to add <cstdint>

Any chance of removing this dependency?

The provided link in the README to VISR
only provides version 0.12.2 instead of the required 0.13.0.

• say exactly how the public data files were created (i.e. which snakemake recipes with which files).
• make "single view" step clearer; this is missing from the extraction step, and should be explained separately anyway.

The keys in the data file should also be explained somewhere, This could be done with a mapping from the terms in section 3.2 (e.g. H(v, l, e, s)) to the keys (e.g. brirs).
