High-Speed Motion Analysis for Sports and Athletic Performance

In situations where physical markers would impede natural movement, ProAnalyst's markerless feature tracking is ideal. In this video, the hip, knee, and foot movement of a rugby kicker are tracked automatically. Comet trails and velocity vectors provide visual and quantitative information for kinetic analysis.
