Jarvis_Render.py

# This script is an example of how you can run blender from the command line
# (in background mode with no interface) to automate tasks, in this example it
# creates a text object, camera and light, then renders and/or saves it.
# This example also shows how you can parse command line options to scripts.
#
# Example usage for this test.
#  blender --background --factory-startup --python $HOME/background_job.py -- \
#          --text="Hello World" \
#          --render="/tmp/hello" \
#          --save="/tmp/hello.blend"
#
# Notice:
# '--factory-startup' is used to avoid the user default settings from
#                     interfering with automated scene generation.
#
# '--' causes blender to ignore all following arguments so python can use them.
#
# See blender --help for details.
