Not free, but not terribly expensive (at USD99.00 or 199.00) is
"PFhoe" found at <http://pfhoe.com/>. I have no experience with it.

Idea: Let's convert Hugin to a match moving camera tracker.
Perhaps Hugin could be as a base to a free camera tracker. What is a
camera tracker you might ask. Well...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Match_moving
At the moment there is no free alternatives to a commercial products
like Syntheyes and Voocat except Voodoo which is freeware and not
permitted to commercial usage. Check Voodoo here:
http://www.digilab.uni-hannover.de/docs/manual.html
Camera tracking done with Voodoo can then be exported (with Voodoo) to
a file that Blender (free and open source 3d modeling and animation
program) understands. You can get a good picture what this is all
about and test camera tracking by yourself by looking these youtube
videos:
Part one

Part two

(Of course, Blender skills are highly recommended for testing it.)
Surely there are only very few of them who happens to use Hugin, use
Blender, know what is a camera tracker, need it and have required
programming skills (which I don't have) - and motivation to do it.
However, at least one effort has been done althought it is not Hugin
based:

Probably it was too large effort for a one person voluntary project.
Therefore I'm here to ask if Hugin developers are willing to create an
open source camera tracker.
(Somebody has to create the spark, some one else must do all the hard
work.)
Any ideas how to continue from this?
