BorisFX announces the release of SynthEyes 2026, the latest version of its 3D tracking software. This update incorporates new tools such as the Mocha Point Tracker for complex surfaces and live previews for GeoH. It also comes with support for importing USD/USDZ data, workflow improvements, and the start of a modernization of its interface, while maintaining compatibility with current projects.
Integration of Mocha Technologies and Optimized Workflow 🔧
The inclusion of the Mocha Point Tracker enables more robust planar tracking on surfaces with difficult textures or soft edges. Live previews for GeoH configurations speed up camera height adjustments. The ability to import USD/USDZ data facilitates connection with modern pipelines. Other improvements include full scene transformation and more detailed lens distortion map export.
The Interface is Renewed, but Our Click Vices Persist 😅
The promised interface modernization is news that every artist receives with cautious hope. Although the buttons gain clarity, the essence of the SynthEyes user remains unchanged: that impulse to click Solve ten times in a row, convinced that the eleventh time the software will have mercy. The new coat of paint doesn't erase our desperate habits.
