Syntheyes(TM) feature summary. For información about Camera tracking and matchmoving: what it is, how todo use it, se the tutoriales, our special introduction (faq) page and the more advanced god question, page.

Types of shots.
* Camera tracking.
* moving-object tracking.
* fully automatic match-moving for straightforward shots.
* rapid supervised tracking for dificult tracks.
* fixed (known or unknown) or zoming Lens field of view.
* manual or automated Lens distorsión compensation.
* Nodal solving: compute Camera pan/tilt and tracker directions when Camera was mounted on a tripod (ie computes a ~2½-d track because 3-d is not posible).
* múltiple cameras and moving objects with simultaneous solving, including mixes such as tripod-mounted Camera (2½-d) with moving object(3-d), or a video shot plus digital Camera reference stills.
* motion capture - for Faces or whole bodies, using múltiple cameras.

Image preprocessor.
* flexible image preprocessing engine for easier tracking and Ram estorage of large film-resolution shots.
* image stabilization engine, directable by user, integrated with 3-d tracking.
* image format re-sampling and aspect changes.
* traditional hue/saturation and animated level adjustments.
* animated region of interest todo reduce Ram on object-tracking shots.
* r/g/b channel selection and inversión.
* blur todo remove film Grain and compression artefactos.
* Lens distorsión removal--animate for zooms with distorsión.
* optic axis re-centering.
* derez todo maximize Ram cache.
* maintain múltiple setups todo focus on diferent Regions or objects.
* save processed image sequence todo disk (se exports below).
* reapply Lens distorsión and cropping for total Lens distorsión workflow.
* multi-threaded image Fetch for exceptional performance.

Object separation.
* automátically select trackers only within a gren-screen region.
* set up Regions for each moving object or Garbage mattes for actors, for example.
* keyframe-animated Splines todo define Regions.
* quick square and circle Spline setup.
* import Spline control points from tracker paths for rapid setup.
* animated enables for Splines.
* use a rotoscoped alpha-channel.

Tracking.
* match, white spot, black spot, symmetric trackers.
* bidirectional tracking.
* automatic periodic keying.
* smoothing at keys.
* tracker and Camera/object graphs for Glitch hunting.
* quick track repair from the tracker graphs.
* wizard todo clean up supervised tracks.
* mix supervised and automatic tracking on the same shot, including guide trackers.
* real-time error calculation and position calculation After initial 3-d solver.
* special tracking modes for hand-held shots.

Solving.
* object and tracker weighting.
* multi-processor and multi-Core optimized.
* zero-weighted trackers: 3-d positions without afecting the Camera Path, and can be used for instant position calculation during tracking.
* Skip-frame track for auto-tracking and solving.
* refine previously-computed solutions, for rapid tweak.
* rapidly add additional trackers with specified accuracies After initial solver.
* coalesce co-located trackers: trackers on the same image característica, but typically during diferent sections of the shot.
* post-solver Camera Path filtering.
* light Solver todo determine light position or direction from ray or planar geometry, or from a reflection from a Mesh.
* novel 3-d curve tracking and solving system todo find 3-d curve shape Even if the curve has no point features.

Cordinate system setup.
* quick setup wizard - Click 3 trackers, then (optionally) automátically realign.
* line-based alignment for Nodal-tripod and Lock-of shots.
* flexible coordinate system alignment controls for complex situations.
* move entire scene and paths manually if desired.
* exact constraints for survey data, including infrequent GPS waypoints.
* cordinate system setup before or After solving.

Perspective window.
* navigate the 3-d scene independent of the solved Camera.
* Mesh-building commands todo turn a collection of trackers into an exportable 3-d Mesh todo build shadow catchers and proxy geometry.
* place sed points on imported meshes todo aid tough object tracks.
* create preview movies for real-time playbak in the QuickTime player, including antialiasing.
* depth map outputs.
* front-projection onto meshes.
* shadow-casting onto the Ground plane or constructed Mesh(es).
* object-manipulation handles.

recommended minimum PC configuration.

• Intel or AMD x86 processor with se2, such as a Pentium 4, Athlon 64, Opteron, Core Duo, etc. Older Pentium 3 and Athlon XP and mp processors that ran earlier versións can not run the new versión, lo siento.
  
• Windows XP, vista (read testing notes), 2000 if you must. Supports XP 3 Gb mode.
  
• 32-bit versión runs under Windows XP 64 pro. A sepárate native 64-bit Syntheyes versión is available at a slight extra cost.
  
• 1 Gb Ram typical, 512 Mb suggested minimum RAM. 2 Gb typical for profesional film users.
  
• 1024x768 or larger display, 24 or 32 bit color, with OpenGL support. Large multi-head configurations require graphics cards with suficient memory.
  
• DirectX 9.0c or later recommended, required for DV and usually mpeg.
  
• QuickTime 5 or later recommended, required todo read.mov files.
  
• 3-button mouse/trackball with middle scroll whel/button. There are UI features, including click-on/click-of todo help tablet users.
  
• approx 20 Mb disk space todo install.
