Layout3mesh

<h1 align=center> layout3mesh </h1> <div align=justify> <p> This is a simple tool to convert an integrated circuit layout saved in OASIS / GDSII file format to a mesh 3D image file. The tool doesn't support direct export of the 3D mesh file into the Blender desktop app just yet - but I am working on a solution. This tool was written with the goal of rendering any layout in 3D inside a desktop or web application using WebGL. </p> <br/> <p> The supported export formats are: <ul> <li> <a href="https://registry.khronos.org/glTF/specs/2.0/glTF-2.0.html"> GLB/glTF2 </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_(file_format)"> STL </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PLY_(file_format)"> PLY </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavefront_.obj_file"> Wavefront OBJ </a> </li> </ul> </p> </div> <h2 align=center> Installation </h2> <h3 align=center> MacOS, Linux, Windows </h3>

pip install layout3mesh

<h2 align=center> Usage - Command Line Interface </h2>

layout3mesh -i <input_file_path [.gds/.oas]> -o <output_file_path [.glb]> -t <layerstack_file_path [.ymls]>

<h2 align=center> Examples </h2> <p> Running the example with the mock layerstack file and layout provided in the <a href="tests/data/">examples</a>, by running the following command: </p>

layout3mesh -i ./tests/data/crossed_metal.gds -t ./tests/data/mock_layers.ymls -o ./tests/data/crossed_metal.gltf

<p> can generate the following 3D image: </p> <p align=center> <img src="tests/data/crossed_metal.gif" width=70%/> </p>
