Sample geometry output?

[pbowmar]

Hi,

I've got the Linux demo version of PFHoe-pro, it's awesome you're officially supporting Linux, and Houdini!

My only concern with the demo is not being able to see the actual results in Houdini. I totally get that you want the demo to be limited to encourage a purchase, but in this case it's preventing a purchase.

Do you have sample tracked image sequences (720x480 or 720x576 would be fine) with exported Undistorted and exported Camera/Feature data available to test load into Houdini?

Alternatively, is there a way to get an eval serial number that is time restricted but allows export of the critical last step of the process?

Cheers,

Peter B

Hi Peter,
I have put an export & undistorted footage here for you to try:

Please let me know when you have it as I will take it down once
you are done. I have not checked this as I do not have Houdini, so
if anything looks wrong let me know & I'll re-post.

Hope that helps,

atb,
Nick

Hi Nick,

Cheers for that, works beauty!

We just got PFTrack 5 (pro version) at work on eval for stereo work, and I notice in that there is a ".cmd" output for Houdini as well. I guess the advantage of that is that it builds a single Object for each feature point, which offers some flexibility.

Just curious, is that available out from PFHoe too? If not it's not a deal breaker at all, what you gave me works fine and I can easily script the feature points out to individual objects if I needed to.

Also, for PFHoe, will it output a sequence of undistorted images? If it only outputs Quicktime that'll work too, just means an FFMpeg convert to an image sequence.

Thanks!

Glad it worked for you Peter.
I'm sorry for the delay in reply, I must have notification turned off.
As far as I'm aware the .cmd output is PFTrack only.
PFHoe-Pro can export image sequences.

Hope that helps,
Nick
