I'm trying to add objects in a 3d package(Blender) using recorded footage.
I've played with Icarus and it's great to capture the camera movement. Also the Blender 2.41 importer script works in Blender 2.49 as well. The problem is I can't seem to get 3d coordinates for objects.
I have tried Autodesk(RealVIZ) MatchMover 2011 and gone through the tutorials. Tutorial 3 shows how to link a vertex from a 3d mesh to a 2d trackpoint, but the setup is for camera movement. Tutorial 4 goes into Motion capture, but it uses 2 videos of the same motion taken with 2 cameras from different viewpoints. I've tried to bypass that using the same footage twice, but that failed, as the 3d coordinate system ends up messed up.
- What software do you recommend for this (mapping 3d coordinates to 2d tracked points and importing them into a 3d package) ?
- What is the recommended technique ?
- Any good examples out there ?
Thanks, George
