Over the past few years, virtual studios applications have significantly attracted the attention of the entertainment industry. Optical tracking systems for virtual sets production have become particularly popular tending to substitute electro-mechanical ones. In this work, an existing optical tracking system is revisited, in order to tackle with inherent degenerate cases; namely, reduction of the perspective projection model to the orthographic one and blurring of the blue screen. In this context, we propose a simple algorithm for 3D motion estimation under orthography using 3D-to-2D line correspondences. In addition, the watershed algorithm is employed for successful feature extraction in the presence of defocus or motion blur.
