QuadTracker

Transformv1coreConcat: Xform

Overview

Tracks four points as a plane — feeds CornerPin for screens and signs.

How to

How-to

  1. Place the four trackers on the corners of a plane; set anchor positions and press Track.
  2. Bake to a FourCorner with the node's button; operation picks stabilise or match-move.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDefaultWhat it does
track1Float2[760.0, 340.0]One corner of the tracked plane on this frame.
track2Float2[1160.0, 340.0]One corner of the tracked plane on this frame.
track3Float2[1160.0, 740.0]One corner of the tracked plane on this frame.
track4Float2[760.0, 740.0]One corner of the tracked plane on this frame.
anchor1Float2[760.0, 340.0]The corner's position on the reference frame.
anchor2Float2[1160.0, 340.0]The corner's position on the reference frame.
anchor3Float2[1160.0, 740.0]The corner's position on the reference frame.
anchor4Float2[760.0, 740.0]The corner's position on the reference frame.
operationChoicestabilizestabilize holds the tracked feature still; matchmove applies its motion to the input; none only tracks. stabilizematchmovenone
patch_radiusInt12Half-size in pixels of the pattern the tracker matches. Bigger is steadier, smaller follows fine detail.
search_radiusInt64The farthest, in pixels, the feature may move between frames — a cap on the search; the tracker sizes its search inside it.
filterChoicebilinearThe resampling filter. Cubic for general work; impulse to keep hard pixels. impulsebilinearcubicmitchelllanczos
disabledBoolfalseBypass: the node passes its first input through untouched (D in the graph). The knobs keep their values for when it comes back.
labelTextA note shown under the node in the graph — what this node is FOR. Never affects the render or the cache.
hide_inputBoolfalseDraw the node without its input wire — a tidy graph for a node whose source is obvious (a Dot, a viewer tap).
