There are two default scenes ("scene1" and "scene2") for testing. To render them do: python src/main.py -S <scene-name> type python src/main.py for a list of options.

To create your own scene take inspiration from the examples in world.json

Denoising:

To denoise a render: Run python denoiser/denoise.py, choose the input file in the first filedialogue and choose the output folder in the second.
