The voodoo camera tracker estimates camera parameters and reconstructs a 3D scene from image sequences. The estimation algorithm offers a full automatic and robust solution to estimate camera parameters for long video sequences. The results are useful for many applications like film production, 3D reconstruction or video coding. The estimated parameters can be exported to 3D animation packages Softimage 3D or 3D Studio Max.
In this beta version the camera motion model takes only rotation and zoom operations into account. This motion model is valid for sequence taken with a camera on a tripod.
The voodoo camera tracker works very alike to commercial available camera trackers (also called match movers). (e.g. Science D Visions 3D Equalizer
, 2d3 boujou, RealViz Matchmover,...).
