Vernier Video Physics for Positive User Reviews

✓ Great potential for five starsI've been using LoggerPro for about six or seven years, so I knew pretty much what to expect. For the most part I got it. My 2g Touch crashed the ap the first time I tried to analyze, but worked great from then on out. The graphs are entirely recognizable on their famous basketball video. I'm sure a little more practice would make me better, but it is a little difficult to see the crosshairs against the background, especially that wooden paneling. I tried the baseball video also, but couldn't see the ball. I would suggest two improvements for five stars; 1) zoom in capability (I realize the difficulty here) and 2) crosshairs that can color change to make them easier to see in more situations. I'm so psyched about this ap though, despite the room for improvement. I'm definitely going to be spreading the word..SeeNickVersion: 0

✓ All work and all play ;)Here are some suggestions: * enable users to easily save graphs--separate or combined--in PNG to camera roll. Screenshot just doesn't cut it. * include data table, too. * provide vector/Bezier curve for easy motion tracking. Eyeballing is OK right now but less accurate; plus, it would save a lot of time to use vector instead of manually dragging the crosshair * multiple analysis points Keep up the good work !.Epal & OrenVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Simple and intuitiveNice interface. Mine crashes when using sample vids, but I haven't updated to OS 4.3 yet, so hoping that will fix it. Otherwise excellent tool for school..BeonnybeefVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Missing one thingThis is great, but I would like to see acceleration too. Or a table to go with the graphs so I can get more precise numbers to calculate the acceleration..CogleyjpVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Video analysis without going to the computer lab.Easy enough to use for all of my students and a whole lot simpler than trying to install software on the school computers. Tried it for one activity using my personal iPad and my students decided that they would like to have the app on their iPods and iPhones. This app helps to skip past the tedium of measuring and graphing and moving directly to analyzing data. I haven't learned how to have students share videos and graphs without using the school WiFi network but this seems to be a limitation of the platform and not the app..Dave BrothenVersion: 1.1.3

✓ This is a great appI am a physics teacher, and this app is amazing. The best way to show it in the classroom is with (surprise) vernier's logger pro software. Record the video on the iphone and then send it to your computer. Then use logger pro on your computer and show it on the LCD. I am even able to avoid mac/pc issues when I use my school's pc's. The controls are a bit touchy when using the analysis tools on the iphone, but it just takes getting used to it..MartzkevVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Very good appDownloaded because of recommendation and very impressed with idea and app. Would like it a bit more intuitive with regard to starting for new users, or a simple to follow tutorial..JPT 01Version: 1.1.3

✓ Very nice app!Very nice app for video analysis. I hope this is the first step from vernier to integrate their hardware (sensors) with iPad and iPhone software.ILovMyiPhoneVersion: 0

✓ AmazingThe best app for physics.SmackacowVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Very good, almost perfect!This is very useful for me as an animation student, especially for tracking one of the animation principles: Arc. I am having fun doing this. For the most, I can see the timing and spacing even though is not accurate or detail. Thank you for making this app! I could give this 5 stars, if only: 1. Theres an option to use frames per second instead (fps) 2. The app can detect, how many frames per second the video was recorded. 3. Tap and slide option to forward the video every frame 4. I wish I can change the size of the dots or the tracker..AncozVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Cool good app worth $5Actually very good! This app has very unique features I thought a mobile device couldn’t do! I could recommend to be able to add things the the tracking but it looks like you can draw if you track it on your finger!.Koocoy1Version: 3.0.5

✓ WOW!With an iPad, this app is pretty awesome! Exporting to Logger Pro is even better! I'm probably still on the learning curve, but I haven't figured out how to maintain the measurement reference. Still, this is going to be a staple in my physics class!.AudmanoutVersion: 1.2

✓ Great app for $5, but also needs (free) Graphical Analysis appGetting accurate results requires that you know what you’re doing, but if you do, then it’s great. The auto tracking is meh, but manually adding data points is quick and easy. Unfortunately, analyzing the data in this app is crap. Instead, download Vernier’s free Graphical Analysis app and import the data into that. Once the data is there, you can view x and y position and velocity data as well as do curve fitting. All in all, well worth the money for a physics classroom..@TRegPhysicsVersion: 3.0.4

✓ Awesome AppI am a physics teacher and love to use this app. It does a fantastic job at showing the motion of the object and then graphing the position vs time as well as velocity vs time. The use and manipulation of the app to plot points and set up your scale and origin is fantastic. My request (at to give it 5 stars) would be to allow you option to export the coordinate system with the video. Also, it wouldd be great if it would graph the acceleration vs time..Physics Teacher!Version: 2.0.1

✓ Almost thereGreat start; very handy and easy to implement in or out of the classroom.. WHAT IT NEEDS: *****Derive acceleration graphs from velocity graphs.... Easy programing fix **Export files directly to drop box, right now you have to email it out then import them into dropbox from your email, **Also export the data in an excel or csv file for other uses would be nice.. It would be nice to see: and perfect if *A little bit harder to understand mathematically but still easy to program, be able to not only rotate the origin for a tilted camera but be able to show the plane that is of interest incase you are filming something that's not directly perpendicular to the camera... Thanks a lot! Good start!.TTU raiderVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Multiple pointsI would like to see multiple point analysis, other than that its pretty nifty..GroundmanVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Simply brillientA lab in my pocket! Simple, cheap and effective. As a teacher of physics for many years I can now use video analysis software without breaking my budget or spending lots of time getting things to work! Love it!.Mikey DeeeeVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Easy to useI tried this app in class with my students today. I demo'd it quickly, then had them video a ball being tossed straight up and look at the graphs. I was amazed at how quickly they caught on and the quality of the graphs they got. It only took them about 10 minutes. Now that I know it's pretty quick, we can analyze many different types of motion. It is limited by the quality of the video, faster things tend to get blurred. There is the ability to zoom in on objects moving slower to get a more accurate positioning of them at various time intervals. I found with slower moving objects, it was better to skip ahead an equal number of frames. I only wish it had the ability to find the slope of the graphs, maybe it does and I didn't find it..SFHS ADMINISTRATORVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Great improvementsI've used this app for years but the recent update is wonderful!! If only I could plot multiple sets of data (maybe each set in a different color). Example: tracking two objects in motion at the same time, to compare projectiles, etc.Strami1Version: 2.0.1

✓ Indispensable App for Physics TeachersAs a middle school science teacher in an iPad school, this app has been very useful. Capturing data is a snap (use a iPad camera stand) and analyzing it is instantaneous (the App does the math). Students can focus quickly on what the charts "say," rather than spend hours trying to make charts. The only downside (4 stars, not 5) is that the timer cannot be set to 0.00 sec at the start of the action. There are times when it would be helpful to be able to start the timer with the first marking dot..TRexologyVersion: 3.0.3

✓ Great app for education!Very easy to use; good data; easy to transfer data and analysis to Facebook or to email. Students loved using it. Good job Vernier!.Eric Sci & TechVersion: 0

✓ Super EasyJust tried it today on a video of a falling object. It works great. You tap to set points that track the object. Then it produces graphs of x,y position and time. I haven't tried it in class yet but feel confident students will pick it up in under 10 minutes. I wish it could output to an excel or google docs spreadsheet. It can save a logger pro file to Dropbox or Google docs..8th grade math teacherVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Amazing!Automatic object tracking of objects is amazing. I no longer have to spend 10 minutes adding points to my videos. Plus it has experiment renaming! What more could you want?.Ruben NicVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Excellent app for first year physics labUsed it this year with my first year physics classes. Shot a nerf gun, free throw, kicked a soccer ball etc. With a class set of iPads every student could do their own video and data analysis. In the past we had to find a digital video camera, take turns doing the video, download the video then do analysis. This turned a four hour lab into a two hour lab with each student able to do their own analysis. Highly recommended..TachyonbbVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Incredibly useful, easy to pick up utilityGreat for school, athletics, etc..Buckster1993Version: 1.2.1

✓ GoodThis app looks good. I haven't used it yet. But I think It is expensive..71637hVersion: 1.2

✓ Fantastic the Best for teaching physicsTracking need to be done with a special care. Make video that way you have high contrast between tracking object and the background.FsertawvVersion: 3.0.5

✓ Decent little appThis app is a useful tool for kinematics, especially projectiles. Advantages: This is a lot better than the old-school method of tracing motion on overheads taped to a TV screen. Simply take a video, indicate the location of your axes and a scale object, and mark the location of the moving object in each frame. (Simple, but tedious.) Then you get nice kinematics graphs. Shortcomings: It would be nice to be able to compensate for camera movement (by, say, indicating the location of fixed objects) and there seems to be no way to take high-speed videos to analyze fast objects. (One can use another app to do that and import the video, but that's an extra step, and an extra purchase.).Robert PriorVersion: 2.0.1

✓ Easy-to-useI’m a chemistry teacher who uses many Vernier products in class and I also coach pole vault. I started using this with my athletes to analyze their run so I can show them what I see by eye. I just really wish we could change the axis options as x velocity vs x position would help show them more accurately the set-up at take-off. This would greatly improve efficiency and effective coaching as I need to export into the graphical analysis app. This change would speed up my analysis! As others mention, the tracking feature doesn’t work well for me either as I’m analyzing running mechanics..Jen-bobVersion: 3.0.5

✓ ExcellentUpdate: when coupled with Vernier's Graphical Analysis app this now is, itself, a great app. It is very easy to get projectile motion data using this app and then email the data to yourself. You can then open the emailed data in the Graphical Analysis app if you have it, and easily analyse the data, including lines of best fit, equations of the lines etc. Overall this app, coupled with the Graphical Analysis app, is great for physics students. ........................................................................................................... This App is fantastic, however it doesn't let you export the information as a csv or in any other way except what is used by their desktop software. I'm using an iPad - I don't want to have to rely on desktop software to do other analysis of the data. The graphs produced are pretty good, however if you want to determine the slope of a graph (for example to determine the acceleration due to gravity using the velocity over time graph for a falling object) you have to estimate the x and y values from the scale used in the graph. I actually put a ruler on the iPads screen to work out the scale to get reasonably accurate coordinates of the plotted points. This shouldn't be necessary! I should just be able to look at the raw data..BruceathomeVersion: 1.1.3

✓ Great classroom tool from Vernier!This is a great concept from Vernier. I have loved using the LoggerPro video analysis with my class for years. The only issue I have with the software is that targeting and clicking with a second finger is a bit odd since you can't see your targeted object since your finger covers it. It might be nice if a button was added to select the target after you already know you've got it in the crosshairs. 4/5.Kenneth MagnoVersion: 0
