Momentum
Momentum provides foundational algorithms for human kinematic motion and numerical optimization solvers to apply human motion in various applications.
Quick Start
Installation
Pre-built binaries are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux:
# Python (PyPI) - uv preferred over pip
uv add pymomentum-cpu # CPU version
uv add pymomentum-gpu # GPU version with CUDA
pip install pymomentum-cpu # Alternative: using pip
pip install pymomentum-gpu
# Python (Conda/Pixi)
pixi add pymomentum # Auto-detects GPU/CPU
conda install -c conda-forge pymomentum
# C++ (Conda/Pixi only)
pixi add momentum-cpp
conda install -c conda-forge momentum-cpp
📦 Browse packages: PyPI • conda-forge • prefix.dev
Quick Example
# Install and run
pip install pymomentum-cpu
python -c "import pymomentum.geometry as geom; print(dir(geom))"
Building from Source
