[Soc-2011-dev] weekly progress report #2 - 30th May-5th June

[Sergey I. Sharybin]

  Hi, Blender Community!

I'm still wirking under camera tracking integration project and here's 
some small progress for this week
> 1) what you did this week
- Some small bugfixes, redesign of data structures to fit libmv workflow
- Subset of libmv is copied to extern/ folder, script to obtaining 
needed subset from libmv's git is included there
- Eigen3 is also bundled into extern/. It's needed for libmv.
- The very basic 2D tracking integrated. Markers now could follow the 
image after tracking.

> 2) what you will do next week
- Clean up my first basic architecture I've implemented for tracking. 
Not sure what exactly would change here, but probably there's something 
to be changed.
- Improve caching system, so tracking HD videos wouldn't be problem for 
my laptop which hasn't got bunch of memory. This would probably be 
related on proxies and so.
- Improvements in 2D tracking integration. At least pattern size should 
be sent as traker's parameter to libmv.
- I've also have to write some docs related on mental models and so to 
make things happening/needed for tracking be clear for both of 
develoeprs and artists.
- Maybe something else would be discovered.
> 3) any problems that will require extra attention and the impact on
> your proposed schedule
There's still not serious difficulties -- just interacting with libmv 
team, synchronizing knowledge which sometimes is changing a lot. but 
it's not stoppoers for project still.

And i've also have small screencast [2] (and [3]) which i want to share 
with you. Pardon for my accent there, next time i'l ltry to make better 
screencast.
