This script for Daz Studio takes the data from the camera tracker named Voodoo and makes it usable in Daz Studio. Which is Mac compatible, better and faster. A zip package containing 2 scripts ( one for Daz Studio 1 & 2, one for Daz Studio 3 & 4 ) can be found at the bottom of the page. Click the (Re)build VooDoo Camera. Also, i did my tests with data from the 2010 version of VooDoo ( 1.0.0 Beta) there's a new version of VooDoo ( 1.2.0 ) so i'll see if it still produces (text format) data compatible with my script. Note that i also have scripts on my web site to transfer the animated VooDoo Camera to Poser and Carrara and Blender. Apr 19, 2021 The 3D camera tracker's effect helps analyze different sequences of video to extract 3D scene data and camera motion. It further allows us to composite the 3D elements over 2D elements correctly. The next section will cover the After Effects camera tracking tutorial in terms of a 3D camera tracker. To sum it up, you process your video through Voodoo, save the tracking data in a text file, then use mcjVooDooDaz to import the animated camera and the feature point markers in Daz Studio.

Voodoo, the well known free camera tracking software, has recently been updated with some nice fixes.

The Voodoo Camera Tracker estimates camera parameters and reconstructs a 3D scene from image sequences. The estimation algorithm offers a full automatic and robust solution to estimate camera parameters for video sequences. The results are useful for many applications like film production, 3D reconstruction, or video coding.

From the Voodoo site:

The Voodoo camera tracker estimates camera parameters and reconstructs a 3D scene from image sequences. The estimation algorithm offers a full automatic and robust solution to estimate camera parameters for long video sequences. The results are useful for many applications like film production, 3D reconstruction or video coding... Export the estimated camera parameters to the 3D animation package 3D Studio Max, Softimage, Maya or Blender.

Voodoo, for Linux and Windows, has the following fixes listed with this new version:

• fixed bug that causes regular crashes in free-move tracking in version 0.8 and version 0.8.1
• allow later refinement (bundle adjustment) of results in memory
• added new Modelling Tools
