ERROR wile downloading tiny-cuda-nn

[Tarpita-Singh]

I was following the NeRF Studio documentation for installation and i came across an error while executing this line:

tiny-cuda-nn
After pytorch and ninja, install the torch bindings for tiny-cuda-nn:

pip install ninja git+https://github.com/NVlabs/tiny-cuda-nn/#subdirectory=bindings/torch

the error :

i have tried a few solutions mentioned here but still cannot find a way to resolve this.
if you have solved a similar problem then please help me, thanks.

Hopfully this gets some attention on this

you need to add the environment variable 'TCNN_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES'
look up your card on https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus and remove punctuation from it (ex the 3050's 8.6 should be 86 in your system path)
