Hi,
This might be a daft question, but I'm starting to look into render optimisations and techniques with Karma and I was wondering if you could visualise an image's pixel variance as an AOV? Both because the pixel oracle uses it for it's adaptivity and as a kind of pre-denoise check.
I guess you can kind of see areas where it's high based on the primary samples AOV if the oracle's clamping the low variance areas, but I was wondering if there was any way to pull that variance value out in the same way the primary samples / CPU time etc are in the "optimisation" setup? I've had a look through the log and can find the different stats for the other optimsation AOVs but can't find anything I could use to pull that pixel variance out.
Cheers,
Paddy
