Chapter 6: Measurements
25
Introduction
With the PCC (Phantom Camera Control) 2-D motion
analysis tools, the end-user can perform timing,
position, distance, velocity, angle and angular speed
measurements, and track multiple points or objects to
compute and graph their XY-coordinates, speed, or
acceleration. PCC, for example, provides several edge
detection algorithms and image processing tools to
improve the measurement process. The measurement
technology provides a motion analysis system that
harmonizes measured data with images.
Data Acquisition
To investigate the effect environmental conditions may
have on the recorded data, a National Instruments
™
USB- or M- Series Data Acquisition (DAQ) module
can also be used to acquire data from a wide range of
sensors, and synchronize it with slow-motion video images
recorded on a Phantom camera, using Phantom Camera
Control (PCC) software.
