Advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are improving 3D tracking precision in Boris FX SynthEyes, with the technology now focused on motion estimation.
SynthEyes 2025.5, the latest release from Boris FX, brings significant improvements to 3D tracking, workflow efficiency, and export reliability. This update introduces AI-assisted motion estimation, automated workflows, and more.
AI-Powered Motion Tracking with ML Motion Estimation
The new ML Motion Estimation tool uses deep learning for optical flow calculation between frames. This method improves tracking on challenging surfaces with little texture and during heavy motion or fast camera moves, providing a practical and accurate alternative to conventional tracking approaches.
Robust Lens Data Export with Lens Workflow
The Lens Workflow export has been significantly improved to make lens data exports rock-solid, stable, and consistent across multiple applications and pipelines. This addresses prior fragility and reduces surprises when moving lens calibration data between software.
Time-Saving Parent Mesh to Tracker Functionality
The Parent Mesh to Tracker functionality lets users quickly attach objects by parenting meshes directly to trackers. This feature dramatically speeds up layout, iteration, and scene setup processes.
Other Notable Improvements
- Enhanced tracking stability on difficult shots thanks to dense optical flow support from the ML Motion Estimation system.
- Streamlined automated workflows to reduce setup time and manual effort for matchmove artists.
- Support for import/export improvements, including better handling of focal length metadata and exporter logic for tracker selection.
- Compatibility updates with popular cameras and export formats.
Pricing and Availability
SynthEyes 2025.5 is offered as a low-cost standalone app ($325/year), emphasizing accessible, production-grade tracking with AI-augmented tools.
Key Features at a Glance
- AI-assisted, precise 3D tracking with ML Motion Estimation.
- Reliable, consistent lens data export via the new Lens Workflow export.
- Time-saving mesh parenting to trackers for fast scene assembly.
- Various workflow and export enhancements supporting diverse pipelines.
Lens Workflow exports apply necessary lens settings during export, ensuring consistent results across platforms. Mask ML in SynthEyes 2025.5 receives a new mask dilation setting for finer control over mask behavior.
