CppPythonShmDemo

A Cross-Language Shared Memory IPC Demo for C++ and Python

This project demonstrates efficient data communication between C++ and Python using shared memory, providing a lightweight and high-performance solution for real-time inter-process communication (IPC).

Use Cases

1. Real-time sensor data streaming (e.g., cameras, LiDAR)
2. Integrating C++ performance-critical modules with Python ML/scripting layers.

Quick Start

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your_username/CppPythonShmDemo.git  

2. Build and run C++ component:

   cd shm_demo_cpp && mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make
   ./shm_demo_cpp

3. Install Python requirements and run:

   cd shm_demo_python
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   python main.py
