motanali

Motanali makes video motion analysis simple for physics lessons. Record or import a video of a moving object, such as a rolling or falling ball. Motanali can automatically detect and track the object from frame to frame, reducing the repetitive work normally required for video analysis. The tracked motion is converted into data that students can explore and use to investigate the physics behind real experiments. With Motanali, students can: • Track the motion of objects in a video • Automatically detect object positions • Examine position and velocity • Visualize motion using graphs • Work with real measurements instead of idealized examples Automatic tracking handles much of the tedious frame-by-frame analysis, leaving more time to examine the results, discuss the physics, and understand how mathematical models relate to real motion. Motanali is designed as a focused educational tool for physics experiments in the classroom and at home.
