โ€ŒGeneric 3-D Exporters

There are several 3-D exports that produce plain text files. You can use them for any software SynthEyes donโ€™t already support, for example, non-visual-effects software. You can also use them as a way to manipulate data with little shell, AWK, or Perl scripts, for example.

Importantly, you can also use them as a way to transfer data between SynthEyes scene files, for example, to compute some tracker locations to be used by a number of shots. There are several ways to do this, see the section on Merging Files and Tracks.


The generic exports are Camera/Object Path for a path, Plain Trackers for the 3-D coordinates of trackers and helper points, and corresponding importers. You can import 3-D locations to create either helper points, or trackers. This latter option is useful to bring in surveyed coordinates for tracking.
