Blender Pack 2023.2.2: Embracing Blender 4.0 Alpha and enhanced FaceBuilder

In the latest KeenTools Blender Pack 2023.2.2, we're thrilled to roll out the third beta of GeoTracker and extend support for Blender 4.0 Alpha, ensuring you're well-prepared for what's next in the Blender evolution. Additionally, FaceBuilder has received shader upgrades boasting a brighter wireframe for clearer visuals and now includes back-face culling.

We've also tackled minor bugs to make your experience even more flawless. Spotted any issues? We welcome feedback!

GeoTracker for Blender (open beta)

We're introducing our second add-on that brings geometry-based object and camera tracking to your favourite 3D creation suite. Enjoy 3D object and camera alignment and check out our experimental workflow for video-based texturing. And the best part of it, it’s all inside Blender!

Key features

Geometry-based tracking: use 3D models to recreate object movement from live-action video
Precision under control: create keyframes and refine tracking to achieve accurate results
Intuitive workflow: match geometry with the target object by overlaying it on top of your video
Masking: get obstacles out of the way with 2D Composite and 3D Surface masks
Focal length estimation: get precise tracking even when camera parameters are unknown
Zoom shot tracking: track focal length change automatically
Ready for pipelines: export your tracking results outside Blender in any animation supporting format
Track FaceBuilder heads: create custom heads in FaceBuilder and track them with GeoTracker
Built-in texturing: project and bake texture from video onto your 3D model

GeoTracker is currently in free beta. We’re on the lookout for engaging use-cases and examples. Share your works and tag us to get into our highlights!

To help you get started quickly, we’ve prepared a written guide and two video tutorials uncovering the basics of tracking and a head tracking use-case in combination with our FaceBuilder. More video guides are on their way!
