For cylindrical detectors there exist a generic tracking geometry building module, based on KDTree and a proto description.
This building procedure uses a {struct}Acts::ProtoDetector
description which provides a high level description of layers and container volumes, together with some binning and ordering information. This proto description is then used to assign surfaces that are provided to the {class}Acts::KDTreeTrackingGeometryBuilder
using an internal query to the KD-tree structure.
:::{todo} Add description of Blueprint tree and how it can be used to create layerless detector. :::
