pymomentum-cpu 0.1.91.post0

A library providing foundational algorithms for human kinematic motion and numerical optimization solvers to apply human motion in various applications (CPU-only version for Linux, macOS Intel, and macOS ARM)

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))"
