Thank you for starting this discussion! I tried out the HF demo with the bear example and noticed that it didn’t track the feet as expected. I’m curious if this is a particularly challenging case for point tracking? I’m not trying to compare models, just trying to understand what might be happening.

Hi, I am keenly following the development of these point trackers. My use case is tracking the flight/movment of insects in natural enviroments, usually in cluttered background with lots of occlusion. generally I need atleast 2 points on the insect but the ability to track many points opens up a wealth of information about animal movements. I have tried the demo verison, but since I'm lacking in technical skills (took me a while to figure out how to change the path to the file!), I still havent been able to run it on my own videos. Your documentation is good, but it's still very complicated to follow for someone like me coming from a biology background.

Hi @dinrao, thank you for sharing your use case! Did you try the huggingface demo as well? it should be relatively straightforward to upload your own video there: https://huggingface.co/spaces/facebook/cotracker What do you want to achieve by tracking insects?
