This pull request refactors how the
open3ddependency is handled for the Project AirSim Python client. Instead of being a core requirement,open3dis now an optional dependency grouped under a newlidarextra. This makes the base client install lighter and avoids installation issues in environments where Open3D is not supported. Documentation has been updated to guide users on installing the LIDAR visualization utilities and handling Open3D installation problems.Dependency management changes:
open3dfrom the main dependencies list to a new optionallidarextra in bothpyproject.tomlandsetup.py, so it is only installed when LIDAR features are needed. [1] [2]Documentation updates:
client_setup.mdto explain that Open3D is not included by default, and added instructions for installing thelidarextra to enable LIDAR visualization utilities. Improved troubleshooting guidance for Open3D installation issues. [1] [2]eap_quickstart.mdto clarify Open3D is now an optional dependency, and provided instructions for installing LIDAR support or resolving compatibility issues.How Has This Been Tested?
