More About VideoPoint

VideoPoint is a cross-platform video analysis software that allows you to gather position vs. time data for one or more objects on each frame of a QuickTime movie. This data can be plotted, viewed in a table, copied to other programs (such as Excel) for further analysis or modeled using basic equations or fit to a polynomial. VideoPoint's strength is in the collection of this data; combinations of the locations of points can be used to create other measurements such as Center of Mass locations and Distance measurements.

VideoPoint was developed by Mark Luetzelschwab, Priscilla Laws and Michael Gile in conjunction with the Workshop Physics Program at Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA. Patrick Cooney has provided many insights on program design and data analysis.

All current production, publishing and updates are completed by Lenox Softworks, Inc.

Developed in conjunction with the Workshop Physics curriculum at Dickinson College, VideoPoint has had extensive classroom testing and is pedagogically sound. Its plethora of features, ease-of-use and cross platform capabilities led Computers in Physics to name it as one of its winners in their software contest.
