Motion Profiles

SynthEyes offers a motion profile setting that allows a trade-off between processing speed and the range of image motions (per frame) that can be accommodated. If the image is changing little per frame, there is no point searching all over the image for each feature. Additionally, a larger search area increases the potential for a false match to a similar portion of the image.

The motion profile may be set from the summary or feature panels. Presently, two primary settings are available:

Normal Motion . A wider search, taking longer.

Crash Pan . Use for rapidly panning shots, such as tripod shots. Not only a broader search, but allows for shorter-lived trackers that spin rapidly across the image.

Low Detail . Use for green-screen shots where much of the image has very little trackable detail.

There are several other modes from earlier SynthEyes versions which may be useful on occasion.
