MacOS - alicevision/Meshroom GitHub Wiki

Unfortunately there is no official MacOS release.

To build Meshroom on MacOS, you should follow the precise explanation by Ryan Baumann on his blog. (outdated)

Read this issue for more information and updates.

To fully utilize Meshroom, a NVIDIA CUDA-enabled GPU is recommended. Without a supported NVIDIA GPU only "Draft Meshing" can be used for 3D reconstruction.

Note: CUDA 10.2 (Toolkit and NVIDIA driver) is the last release to support macOS for developing and running CUDA applications. Support for macOS will not be available starting with the next release of CUDA. https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-toolkit-release-notes/index.html

Apple ditched Nvidia support, so new Macs don`t have a Nvidia GPU and even NVIDIA eGPUs are not supported since MacOS 10.14 (Mojave).

In the future, Apple will switch to ARM CPUs, which will add an additional issue for building binaries, so an official MacOS build for Meshroom becomes even more unlikely.
