This is a maintenance release with update. The following major new features were added: 

1) Add a new feature tracking method "ENFT: Efficient Non-consecutive Feature Tracking". This method implements the consecutive point tracking step introduced in this paper: Guofeng Zhang, Zilong Dong, Jiaya Jia, Tien-Tsin Wong, and Hujun Bao. Efficient Non-Consecutive Feature Tracking for Structure-from-Motion. European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV), 2010.
2) Add a function for automatically optimizing the threshold of minimum track length. Menu: Actions/Key Frames, click "Keyframe" to open keyframe selection dialog. 


ACTS 1.1 (released 2009-12-1)

This is a maintenance release with update. The following major new features were added: 

1) Add an extra function for video stabilization. Menu: "Advanced Tools/Video Stabilization". 
This tool is implemented based on this paper: Guofeng Zhang, Wei Hua, Xueying Qin, Yuanlong Shao, and Hujun Bao. Video Stabilization Based on a 3D Perspective Camera Model. The Visual Computer, 25(11): 997-1008, 2009.
2) Allow to import and export feature tracks. Menu: "File/Import Feature Tracks" and "File/Export Feature Tracks".
3) Allow to compute the 3D positions of all feature tracks. Menu: "Actions/Estimate 3D Points".
4) Change the function "Adjust Camera". If the solved result is not good, the user can use this function to refine the result.

In addition, the following items were fixed and/or added: 
1) Fix the bug of loading/saving ACTS Binary Project (*.actb).
2) Fix the bug of Command Tree.
3) Allow to change the background color and the rendering size of 3D points.
4) Support rendering the 3D points with pixel color. Menu: "Edit/Estimate Track Color" and "Edit/Clear Track Color".
5) The format of "Camera Track File (*.txt)" is changed.
