The Xcitex family of software products for projectile flight analysis includes three products:

— FlightPath 3-D
— FlightTracker 3-D
— Shadowgraph 3-D

FlightPath 3-D precisely characterizes flight dynamics of projectile motion using two fixed stereo cameras. There are three editions of FlightPath 3-D: Visible, X-Ray and Auto. All three precisely calculate pitch, yaw, orientation, position, velocity, and other metrics of ballistics in flight. The Visible edition is used with visible high-speed video cameras. The X-Ray edition is used with orthogonal flash X-ray systems and the Auto edition enables users to automatically calculate flight dynamics of repetitive shots on the range.

FlightTracker 3-D precisely characterizes flight dynamics of projectile motion using two high-speed cameras and two projectile followers. FlightTracker 3-D calculates pitch, yaw, orientation, position, velocity, and other metrics of ballistics in flight when paired with Trajectory Trackers from Specialised Imaging and/or Flight Followers from MSI.

Shadowgraph 3-D precisely characterizes flight dynamics of projectile motion using an indoor spark range. Shadowgraph 3-D calculates pitch, yaw, orientation, position, velocity, and other metrics of ballistics in flight.

Highlights of the FlightPath 3-D and FlightTracker 3-D software packages

• Computes accurate 3-D position and orientation using pairs of images.

• Data presented in both real world coordinates or relative frame coordinates.

• High positional accuracy using proprietary algorithms.

• Instantaneous, interactive 2-D and 3-D graphing of results.

• Works with images from flash X-ray systems or high-speed video cameras.

• Tools for lens distortion correction.

• Unlimited number of points or lines can be measured.

• Position and velocity automatically computed.

• Length, orientation (pitch, roll, yaw) and angles between lines automatically computed.

• Reads mirror data from both Flight Followers (DRS Inc.) and Trajectory Trackers (Specialised Imaging Ltd.)
