Prepare the rendering data

Environment

The rendering codes are mainly based on BlenderProc. Thanks for the great tool. BlenderProc uses blender Cycle engine to render the images by default, which may meet long-time hanging problem in some specific GPUs (like A800, tested already)

cd ./render_codes pip install -r requirements.txt

How to use the code

Here we provide two rendering scripts blenderProc_ortho.py and blenderProc_persp.py, which use orthogonal camera and perspective camera to render the objects respectively.

Use `blenderProc_ortho.py` to render images of a single object

blenderproc run --blender-install-path /mnt/pfs/users/longxiaoxiao/workplace/blender blenderProc_ortho.py --object_path /mnt/pfs/data/objaverse_lvis_glbs/c7/c70e8817b5a945aca8bb37e02ddbc6f9.glb --view 0 --output_folder ./out_renderings/ --object_uid c70e8817b5a945aca8bb37e02ddbc6f9 --ortho_scale 1.35 --resolution 512 --random_pose

Here --view denotes a tag for the rendering images, since you may render an object multiple times, --ortho_scale decides the scaling of rendered object in the image, --random_pose will randomly rotate the object before rendering.

Use `blenderProc_persp.py` to render images of a single object

blenderproc run --blender-install-path /mnt/pfs/users/longxiaoxiao/workplace/blender blenderProc_persp.py --object_path ${the object path} --view 0 --output_folder ${your save path} --object_uid ${object_uid} --radius 2.0 --random_pose

Here --radius denotes the distance of between the camera and the object origin.

Render objects in distributed mode

see render_batch_ortho.sh and render_batch_persp.sh for commands.
