I have similar plans. I looked into sba, a GPL sparse-bundle-adjustment
packacke and klt, a public domain feature-tracker.
sba is an highly optimized levenberg/marquardt algorithm. I don't know if
that is the
best approach for visual-fx-motiontracking. There are other approaches
(plane-tracking), but I think they are more suited for realtime tracking.

what do you think about sba in blender?

best regards, Stephan.
