🔧 Usage Examples

Python API

GPU-Accelerated Noise Computation:

from src.core.gpu_accelerator import create_default_accelerator
import numpy as np

# Auto-select best backend (CUDA → PyTorch → Numba → NumPy)
accelerator = create_default_accelerator()

# Define noise sources
sources = [
    {'x': 0, 'y': 0, 'intensity': 25, 'decay': 50},
    {'x': 100, 'y': 100, 'intensity': 20, 'decay': 40},
]

# Create grid
x = np.linspace(-500, 500, 101)
y = np.linspace(-500, 500, 101)
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y)

# Compute noise field
noise = accelerator.compute_noise_field(sources, X, Y, base_noise=45.0)
print(f"Noise range: {noise.min():.1f} - {noise.max():.1f} dB")

OSM Road Network Integration:

from src.visualization.map_overlay import MapConfig, MapOverlay

# Configure for Seoul Gangnam area
config = MapConfig(
    center_lat=37.4979,
    center_lon=127.0276,
    bbox_size=1000.0,  # 1km × 1km
    network_type='drive'
)

# Download and process
overlay = MapOverlay(config)
overlay.download_map()
road_lines = overlay.get_road_lines(road_type_colors=True)

print(f"Downloaded {len(road_lines)} road segments")

Animation Recording:

from src.visualization.animation_recorder import AnimationRecorder, RecorderConfig
from src.visualization.camera_controller import CameraPresets

# Setup recorder
config = RecorderConfig(
    output_path="animation.mp4",
    fps=60,
    quality=8,
    resolution=(1920, 1080)
)
recorder = AnimationRecorder(config)

# Create camera path
orbit_path = CameraPresets.create_orbit_path(duration=10.0)

# Record frames
recorder.start_recording()
for frame in render_frames(orbit_path):
    recorder.add_frame(frame)
recorder.stop_recording()
