Denoiser

With the Denoiser, you can achieve significant reductions in render time for production-quality images.

The Denoiser uses a post-processing technique based on machine learning to filter out noise from unfinished and noisy images produced with Fast and Accurate render modes. 



		
To maximize performance with the Denoiser, reduce the number of render
			passes. For example, if a scene typically requires 500 passes without the Denoiser,
			setting it to 50 passes with the Denoiser enabled may achieve similar quality. Depending
			on your image quality goals, you may need even fewer passes. The actual reduction in
			passes and render time depends on your computer hardware and the complexity of the
			scene. 


		
If you use offline or live distributed rendering, Visualize Boost
			supports the Denoiser. See SOLIDWORKS
				Visualize Boost.


		
 The Denoiser requirements depend on the render mode and render
			device: 
    
				
  • 3DS Stellar Accurate GPU - Requires at least 4 GB of video
					memory. See System Requirements for SOLIDWORKS
						Visualize.
    • 

				
  • 3DS Stellar Accurate CPU - No additional hardware
					requirements. 
    • 

				
  • 3DS Stellar Fast GPU - If Stellar Fast is available, it always
					uses denoising by default.. 
    • 

				
  • AMD ProRender Accurate - Requires at least 4 GB of video
					memory. 
    •
