Hello,
Thank you for reviewing my question. Presently I am trying to track the motion of a black dot (the size a quarter), on my wrist using a Unibrain Fire-i digital camera @30fps (1), IMAQ 1394 drivers, Vision 7.0, and LabVIEW 7.1. This is two dimensional planar motion and what I would like to do is plot the position vs. time, velocity vs. time, and accleration vs time on a graph. Does anyone have any example tracking motion vi's or ideas on how to accomplish such a task?
I ran across the following website, http://synapse.vit.iit.nrc.ca/Nouse/index2.html , that tracks the position of a person’s nose and would love to create a similar LabVIEW tool. I am a beginner at the LabVIEW vision processing tools...soon to become an expert ;)...but have used Redlake MotionScope before in the past to track the motion of a spool for vibrational/modal analysis. Something similar to this software or MiDAS (2) would work great for my application. Any ideas? Sounds like an excellent subVI for NI Engineers to develop 😉
Thank you for your help and I look forward to your response,
Travis
