Research direction

Start with the referenced Scripts/installExternals.py entry and Libraries/Aurora/CMakeLists.txt section to understand how the missing Denoiser.cpp and Denoiser.h files are expected to fit. Check the repository's current build and rendering setup, then clarify whether denoising belongs in Aurora or in each consumer; done requires an agreed capability and a working, documented integration if the project adopts it.

Description

Hi,

Are there plans to add in denoise capabilities to this opensource repository? It looks like Aurora has that ability according to this video?

And there are breadcrumbs to enable it in but getting stomped on the missing Denoiser.cpp and Denoiser.h files.

It would have been awesome to get this with denoising capabilities as it is a great interactive renderer and are curious to hear your thoughts on adding to this repository or if it is up to each consumer to add it separately.

Best Regards,
Dan
