Global Align [GA]
The GlobalAlign node
NOTE: The Global Align node is available only in Fusion Studio and
DaVinci Resolve Studio.
Global Align Node Introduction
As opposed to Stereo Align, this node does not utilize optical flow at all. It’s meant as a fast and
convenient way to do simple stereo alignment for both X and Y as well as rotation.
Global Align comes in handy at the beginning of the node chain to visually correct major
differences between the left and right eye before calculating Disparity.
Manual correction of large discrepancies between left and right, as well as applying an initial
color matching, helps Disparity generate more accurate results.
Inputs
The two inputs on the Global Align node are used to connect the left and right images.
Left Input: The orange input is used to connect either the left eye image or
the stack image.
Right Input: The green input is used to connect the right eye image. This input is
available only when the Stack Mode menu is set to Separate.
Outputs
Unlike most nodes in Fusion, Global Align has two outputs for the left and right eye.
Left Output: This outputs the newly aligned left eye image.
Right Output: This outputs the newly aligned right eye image.
Basic Node Setup
Global Align is typically placed at the beginning of the node tree. Below it is inserted between
the left and right eye images and the Disparity node to visually correct major differences.
