External dependencies from GitHub are fetched by CMake. Once built, the external dependencies are invisible to the user of the library. However, the required DLLs must be present on the target machine. Configure the project using [CMake](https://cmake.org/) and build with Visual Studio or alike. ### Sensors included in the repository -SDKs included in the repository are the [AMD Display Library (ADL)](https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/display-library), the [NVIDIA Management Library (NVML)](https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-management-library-nvml) and support for [Tinkerforge](https://github.com/Tinkerforge) bricks and bricklets. On Windows 11, the [Energy Meter Interface](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/powermeter/energy-meter-interface) can be used to query the RAPL (Running Average Power Limit Energy Reporting) registers of the system. This sensor might be available on certain Windows 10 installations, but according to a [presentation by the Firefox team](https://fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/energy_power_profiling_firefox/attachments/slides/5537/export/events/attachments/energy_power_profiling_firefox/slides/5537/FOSDEM_2023_Power_profiling_with_the_Firefox_Profiler.pdf), specialised hardware is supported for that. +SDKs included in the repository are the [AMD Display Library (ADL)](https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/display-library), the [NVIDIA Management Library (NVML)](https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-management-library-nvml) and support for [Tinkerforge](https://github.com/Tinkerforge) bricks and bricklets.

In order for this to work, VISA must be installed on the development machine. You can download the drivers from https://www.rohde-schwarz.com/de/driver-pages/fernsteuerung/3-visa-and-tools_231388.html. The VISA installation is automatically detected by CMAKE. If VISA was found `POWER_OVERWHELMING_WITH_VISA` will be defined. Otherwise, VISA will not be supported and using it will fail at runtime.
