add it as an option (under "Hybrid") in the tracking settings. The
region tracker is a combination of brute force tracking for coarse
alignment, then refinement with the ESM/KLT algorithm already in
libmv that gives excellent subpixel precision (typically 1/50'th
of a pixel)
This also adds a new "brute force" region tracker which does a
brute force search through every pixel position in the destination
for the pattern in the first frame. It leverages SSE if available,
similar to the SAD tracker, to do this quickly. Currently it does
some unnecessary conversions to/from floating point that will get
fixed later.
The hybrid tracker glues the two trackers (brute & ESM) together
to get an overall better tracker. The algorithm is simple:
1. Track from frame 1 to frame 2 with the brute force tracker.
This tries every possible pixel position for the pattern from
frame 1 in frame 2. The position with the smallest
sum-of-absolute-differences is chosen. By definition, this
position is only accurate up to 1 pixel or so.
2. Using the result from 1, initialize a track with ESM. This does
a least-squares fit with subpixel precision.
3. If the ESM shift was more than 2 pixels, report failure.
4. If the ESM track shifted less than 2 pixels, then the track is
good and we're done. The rationale here is that if the
refinement stage shifts more than 1 pixel, then the brute force
result likely found some random position that's not a good fit.
Crash was caused by non-initialized original index passing to compareDrawOptions
callback. Due to in some cases it's enough to know indices of faces in final DM
(like for comparing if the same texture used for mesh drawing) assume this
callback receives index in final DM and if it's needed it will make conversion
to original index itself.
This should help reaching extra speed if textured object is affected by
bevel modifiers, i.e.
Added compareDrawSettings callback to driver mesh's callbacks which are
drawing textured faces (mapped and not mapped). This new callback checks
if two faces are drawing with the same settings (testures, shading etc)
and if they not, flush of faces happens into ogl using glDrawArrays and
next face would be drawn with it's own settings.
Currently implemented compareDrawSettings is used to resolve issue from
bug report only, probably there are extra places where this callback is
needed, but haven't seen configuration where current logic will fail,
so it should be ok.
Also reordered arguments passing to drawMappedFaces DM's callbacks,
so now all drawing callback are accepting list of callbacks and then
userData, instead of using mixed order of callbacks and userData which
was a bit confusing to work with.
This commit fixes:
- #26410: VBO & multitexture doesnt work
- #29464: VBO enabled causes UV coruption
"The Blender Foundation also sells licenses for use in proprietary software under the Blender Licens"
also remove NaN references from files that have been added since blender went opensource.
- renamed BM_Compute_Face_Center() to BM_Compute_Face_CenterBounds() and added BM_Compute_Face_CenterMean() since there was code inline to find the mean center in transform.
In some cases solving can take a while (especially when refining is used)
and keeping interface locked is a bit annoying. Now camera solver is moved
to job system and interface isn't locking.
Reporting progress isn't really accurate, but trying to make it more linear
can lead to spending more effort on it than having benefit. Also, changing
status in the information line helps to understand that blender isn't hang
up and solving is till working nicely.
Main changes in code:
- libmv_solveReconstruction now accepts additional parameters:
* progress_update_callback - a function which is getting called
from solver algorithm to report progress back to Blender.
* callback_customdata - a user-defined context which is passing
to progress_update_callback so progress can be updated in needed
blender-side data structures.
This parameters are optional.
- Added structure MovieTrackingStats which is placed in MovieTracking
structure. It's supposed to be used for displaying information about
different operations (currently it's only camera solver, but can be
easily used for something else in the future) in clip editor.
This statistics structure is getting allocated for time operator is
working and not saving into .blend file.
- Clip Editor now displays statistics stored in MovieTrackingStats structure
like it's done for rendering.
This commit implements:
- Configurable settings for newly creating tracks
Now it's possible to set tracking algorithm and it's settings for
all newly creating tracks including manual tracks creation and
tracks creation by "Detect Features" operator.
- Moves margin, frames limit and adjust frame inside per-track
settings.
Was request from Francois for this.
- Adjust Frames replaced with menu called Pattern Match where it's
possible to choose between matching pattern from keyframe frame
or from previously tracked frame.
Didn't see somebody used adjust frames values differ from 0 and 1,
and this menu should make things more clear here/
