Boris FX SynthEyes 2026 is an important upgrade for all 3D matchmove artists. Whether you are a veteran tracker or just starting your journey, youll find some big improvements aimed at you.
This release marks the beginning of a UI modernization effort, improving discoverability and readability, while respecting the muscle memory artists have built over years. We’ve integrated award-winning Mocha technology to power a new Supervised Tracking option. This holds onto features through challenging motion blur and 3D rotations, without needing to babysit.
For those working with complex rigs, the new Live GeoH preview is a game-changer. It transforms GeoH into an interactive, intuitive experience, closer to posing or animation, providing instant feedback as you adjust constraints or trackers. Combined with expanded USD/USDZ support and a dedicated ST Map exporter, SynthEyes 2026 is the most approachable and capable version yet.

Explore the powerful new camera tracking capabilities integrated into Silhouette 2025.5 and powered by industry-leading SynthEyes technology. Solve 3D scenes directly within Silhouette without needing any other software.
Learn how to perform an automatic solve, generate a point cloud, and create 3D cards for precise paint and compositing tasks. Join Ben Brownlee and walk through several practical examples. Utilize these 3D planes for stabilized painting with the unproject and matchmove functions. Learn professional tips for the best solves by adjusting settings and using occlusion mattes to exclude problematic areas like water or sky.
This workflow is essential for tackling difficult shots with parallax, where traditional planar tracking falls short. Follow along to see how this integrated tool makes challenging paint and roto work more manageable and accurate than ever before.
