compare tracking performance of softVNS with jitter

Floating Point's icon

I'd like to do video tracking using 2 cameras, tracking the movement of one or more people in a laneway. Each camera covers one half of the length of the laneway (one at each end), from overhead. Which package would be better for this application, jitter or softvns? any opinions?
Thanks

It wont be an intel mac, probably a G4; also the 2-camera thing, would that be an issue (hardware or software)? I guess I would need 2 video cards. Given I'm using 2 cameras, with the top of one frame corresponding with the top of the frame of the other video signal, I'm assuming I could track between the two video signals. (If a person is walking in one direction down the lane, then as their image leaves the top of one frame it enters the top of the other frame; this would just be a matter of patching up in Max).
More opinions welcome.
