HydraRender
HydraRender: renders the 3D scene through a USD Hydra render delegate.
HydraRender: renders the 3D scene through a USD Hydra render delegate. Storm (real-time, in the backend) by default; Karma CPU/XPU when Houdini is installed (runs husk); Cycles (hdCycles) runs in the backend on the standalone engine when the Hydra build is installed. Same inputs as ScanlineRender: bg sets the format, obj/scn, cam. Output: rgba (scene-linear, unclamped), depth (1/Z or Z), optional N. Karma also renders progressively in the Viewer (docs/notes/hydra.md).

Nuke equivalent
No Nuke class. In a .nk file this node is written as an Oink node that Nuke will not recognise.
