openMVG/localization/ILocalizer.hpp: No such file or directory

[ultra-sonic]

hey guys,
i have really tried my best,but it seems this plugin does not compile anymore.
the only location I found the ILocalizer.hpp on my machine is
/usr/local/include/aliceVision/localization/ILocalizer.hpp

if I replace all openMVG includes with aliceVision I end up getting this:
/home/omarkowski/dev/AliceVision_ofxMVG/src/localizer/CameraLocalizer.hpp:9:63: fatal error: aliceVision/robust_estimation/robust_estimators.hpp: No such file or directory
And at this point I decided to post here because there is no such file on my machine. There are only a few files that are probably much newer than the one needed in here:
/usr/local/include/aliceVision/robustEstimation

thanks in advance
Oliver

Hi @ultra-sonic,
Thanks for you message.
Recently, we made huge changes in AliceVision and this repository has not been updated yet.
You also need to know that this repository is still a prototype that gives results but is not yet ready for production usages. Currently, the plugin localize each camera in the 3D reconstruction. If the reconstruction is dense enough and you have not too much motion blur, it will work. But for real production, with motion blur, challenging environments, etc. we need to add a 2nd pass to triangulate new points from the camera tracking itself to get high quality camera motion.
But if you are interested in contributing with us, you are more than welcome! The first need is to compile it with AliceVision and update the large renaming, include changes, namespace changes, etc.

If you are interested in camera tracking, we plan to integrate a fully automatic camera tracking solution into Meshroom but without the interaction / feedback that you can have with the openfx plugin.

Hi ! In which MVG release can I find the openMVG/calibration and openMVG/localization folders ? Or could you please share them somewhere so I can build your mvg project ? Otherwise, do you have any sources of the LensCalibration plugin that build ?

It is intended to be used with https://github.com/alicevision/alicevision but the code has not been updated for a really long time. As said before, this repository is still a prototype that gives results but is not yet ready for production usages.

Hi. Please, how do I use the Alicevision binaries to test the camera tracking algorithm ? Where do I start ? Is there a documentation ?

Again, it's not yet ready for production, but you can follow this example (without using the Nuke plugin):
