# Track4World: Feedforward World-centric Dense 3D Tracking of All Pixels

Track4World is a feedforward model for efficient holistic 3D tracking of every pixel in a world-centric coordinate system from a monocular video. Built on a global 3D scene representation, Track4World applies a novel 3D correlation scheme to simultaneously estimate the pixel-wise 2D and 3D dense flow between arbitrary frame pairs.

## 🚀 Sample Usage

You can perform tracking and reconstruction on the provided demo video using the following commands:

### First Frame 3D Tracking (`3d_ff`)

```bash
python demo.py \
    --mp4_path demo_data/cat.mp4 \
    --mode 3d_ff \
    --Ts -1 \
    --save_base_dir results/cat
```

### Dense Tracking: Every Pixel, Every Frame (`3d_efep`)

```bash
python demo.py \
    --mp4_path demo_data/cat.mp4 \
    --coordinate world_depthanythingv3 \
    --mode 3d_efep \
    --Ts -1 \
    --ckpt_init checkpoints/track4world_da3.pth \
    --save_base_dir results/cat
```
