This sensor plugin implements multiple radiance meters, as implemented in the
:monosp:`radiancemeter` plugin.
This sensor allows using the inherent parallelization of Mitsuba2, which is not
possible with the :monosp:`radiancemeter` due to its film size of 1x1.
The origin points and direction vectors for this sensor are specified as a list
of floating point values, where three subsequent values will be grouped into a
point or vector respectively.
The following snippet shows how to specify a :monosp:`mradiancemeter` with
two sensors, one located at (1, 0, 0) and pointing in the direction (-1, 0, 0),
the other located at (0, 1, 0) and pointing in the direction (0, -1, 0).
