Automatic generation of new trackpoints

Guys i have the following idea:

Press automatic tracking button:

  1. Generate an initial amount of tracking points.
  2. Track
  3. WHILE tracking, some points will loose the track > GENERATE NEW POINTS
  4. At the end delete all tracking points under a certain quality value.

Done.

Heyha! :)

There was addon for this - blenderartists.org/t/blender-autotracker-released/688336 , but it's not working in 2.8+ anymore. :(

hm people do this now manually, but in the difficult situations (where you loose track) i think its even for a computer hard to tell where some markers went. Remind that markers can be anything, based upon any kind of tracked 'dot area'.

Maybe its possible to do an edge filter and combine it with an crossings filter to find those point.. but doing it each time will make the process more slow

Wow, you just created syntheye or boujou. :o What an amazing idea, work lazier, not harder !

* @yoann softyoda * I dont see what is wrong in syntheyes or boujou. Why should you work harder if you can easier. After all a tool should make your life easier, not harder. LOL

* @alpha3delta * Absolutly, when i say you just created syntheye or boujou, it wasn't negative, i found them verry powerfull and efficient compared to blender when you want to bruteforce autotracking. When i tell work lazier, not harder, it was the sens of my sentense, i did not told the inverse....
