# DuplicateBlenderData — Blender source scenes for *Structure from Duplicates* (SfD)

The 3D source files behind the synthetic objects in
[**DuplicateSingleImage**](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TianhangCheng7/DuplicateSingleImage), plus
the HDRI environment maps used to light the renders. Use this repo if you want to **re-render** the
objects, change the lighting, or build new duplicate-object scenes — for training SfD itself you only
need `DuplicateSingleImage`.

## Layout

```
box, cash, cleaner, clock, coffee, fire, gitar, sign, tin
  <object>_clean.blend     # the Blender scene (cash/ is scene.blend)
  textures/                # the PBR maps the scene references
hdi/
  a.exr ... f.exr          # HDRI environment maps
  nv_box.hdr
```

`hdi/b.exr`, `hdi/c.exr` and `hdi/d.exr` are the maps the repo calls `b`/`c`/`d`; `b` and `d` are the
two targets used by the relighting evaluation (`--eval_relight`).

## Download

```bash
# whole thing (~770 MB)
hf download TianhangCheng7/DuplicateBlenderData --repo-type dataset --local-dir blender_data

# or from a clone of the SfD repo
python download_assets.py --blender-data blender_data

# just one environment map
hf download TianhangCheng7/DuplicateBlenderData hdi/b.exr --repo-type dataset
```

Open a `.blend` in Blender 3.x or newer. Textures are referenced with relative paths, so keep each
object folder's `textures/` next to its `.blend`.
