utils module

Utility functions for rendering scenes in Blender.

utils.add_object(object_dir: str, name: str, scale: float, loc: tuple[float, float], theta: float = 0) → None

Load an object from a file. We assume that in the directory object_dir, there is a file named “$name.blend” which contains a single object named “$name” that has unit size and is centered at the origin.

Parameters:

• object_dir – string giving the directory where the object .blend file is located

• name – string giving the name of the object to load

• scale – scalar giving the size that the object should be in the scene

• loc – tuple (x, y) giving the coordinates on the ground plane where the object should be placed.

• theta – optional rotation of the object about the z-axis

utils.extract_args(input_argv: str | None = None) → List[str]

Pull out command-line arguments after ‘–‘.

Parameters:

input_argv – list of command-line arguments
