Thank you for saving my life Douglas Brown. I have an extremely awful physics teacher who cannot teach us how to use the tracker however this will let me pass my assignment. God bless your soul🙏
Dear Doug Brown you have written a very powerful programm. Thank you very much! I have been using this programm for almost 7 years now. So many laws of physics can be investigated with very little spending for experimental setup. Great work!
Great video! This past year, I've been having my physics students record their own videos (using a GoPro Hero 3 black-240fps) and analyze their videos for their physics labs. Last year, I had my high school physics students use Tracker to analyze a movie/tv clip to see if the physics was realistic. Thank you for making a great and user-friendly product!
Doug Brown, thank you so much for this intuitive software! Had to develop a video analysis and plot of a sine wave fin motion and I was recommended Kinovea. Unfortunately it doesn't work with MacOS or in Parallels. On the other hand, your software easily installed and worked first try. After reviewing your video and documentation I had the entire project completed within a few hours and exported to a sharable Excel sheet with the data export option. Again, thank you for this open source, free option!
Thank you so much for this great piece of software and tutorial - my daughter is doing her homework right now using your software for acceleration measurements of a dynamic friction test!
Thanks a lot. I am physiotherapist interested in researching biomechanic of falls. Now i will be able to analyze simple variables form smartphone-made movies! This soft is exactly what I need. Explanation was perfect, dont listen to others, you sound like experienced mentor
I suggest you ask this question on the Tracker forum at www.compadre.org/osp/bulletinboard/ForumDetails.cfm?FID=57 You'll need to create an account, but it is free and easy. You should also put more detail into your question. See www.compadre.org/osp/items/detail.cfm?ID=16061 for reporting guidelines.
Hello Douglas. Great video. I have a problem when using the perspective tool. Its a rocording of a bowling field at foot height and therefor there is a lot of perspective, when comparing the bottom of the bowling alley to the start. Is there too much perspective to use the tool?
Thanks for this great software. Really appreciate it. If this works for several particles/masses and to take the average of them, this can even be used in research purposes too. Please consider it for this free software
Hello Mr Brown, Is it possible to measure the distance of the ball's trajectory? I am trying to do some measure of coral larvae natation with this software. Thanks
+Douglas Abrantes One way to do this would be to plot the speed (velocity magnitude "v", not vx or vy) vs time, then double-click the plot to open the data in Data Tool. In Data Tool click the Measure button and check the Area box. The area under the speed-time graph is distance. The only disadvantage of this method is that you only get the distance from the second to the next-to-last position (since speed cannot be measured at the first and last point).
Hi, I’m new in using Tracker and wanted to ask how could I use it to estimate the speed of an object in a GIF? For reference, I made a GIF using GIPHY and tried to upload it on Tracker by dragging it directly on the blank page - but I couldn’t make it work, and I’m now stuck. Thanks in advance for the help.
If your gif won’t open in Tracker then there’s probably something wrong with it. Does it play automatically in a browser? Once it’s open you’ll need to set the frame rate in the clip settings and calibrate the scale.
Hello Douglas. Thank you so much for this amazing piece of work. It is really simple and easy to use tool. In my application, i need to track two Point masses which are moving in opposite direction with different velocity towards each other along a straight line. Is there a way where we can extend the functionality of this program to track the motion of the two object moving towards each other.
Hi,I am trying to simulate the sloshing phenomena. i have got the video file of the sloshing. Now I want to get the plot of amplitude of free surface variation with time. So in tracker which tracker option should I select??
Use a point mass to track the surface at a single horizontal position. If you use the autotracker, rotate the axes so the x-axis points up and check the "x-axis only" box in the autotracker dialog.
@@trackervideotool thanks for the reply. I tried doing this.But I am not getting desired results, i.e I am getting pointed graph,not a smooth curve, I should get repeated sinusoidal variation with beats. Any idea how to do it?
@@sajidmomin7759 it’s impossible to know what the issue is without seeing the video. Have you looked carefully at the marked points to see if they are reasonable? Have you tried marking the points by hand?
what is the optimal resolution to record videos for tracking? from eyeballing it I have been getting the best quality using 1080p and 60fps. I am using a GoPro 5 Black
There's no optimal resolution. If you have good contrast, focus, small distinguishable details and other best practices (eg bright illumination for fast shutter speeds, etc) when shooting the video then higher video resolutions should give smaller uncertainties when marking either manually or automatically. However, larger file sizes and pixel dimensions definitely slow Tracker down!
When you save changes it saves a file with extension .trk. The first time you do this you must name the file. After that it saves changes to the same filename. You should be able to search for that file and open it in Tracker.
Hi Douglas, Great video and thanks for making it. I'm using it for a modelling project i have to do (mechanical engineering). I just imported a video which was recorded on an iphone at 60 fps. Although the frame rate says 59.8f/s in the clip settings the video seems to be running in slow motion. Is this normal? Will it influence my time scale?
From my experience using the software, The program uses a "read-only" system, and only loads the frame as it is displayed. This can cause it to look like it is running in slow motion, but if the frame rate is correct, the plots, graphs and tables should all keep time in the correct scale, assuming 59.8 is very close to the actual frame rate of the video. Hope this helps.
Thanks for making this video! It was very helpful. For my experiment I need to deduce the angular velocity of a spinning skater. I was wondering is it possible to do it with using this software? If so how?
If you have a view from above it's easy because you can track an arm or something else that rotates. If not, then your best bet is to simply measure the mean time per rotation and determine angular velocity from that period.
I have a high definition video on ".mov" here on my computer... But when i try to open it on the program it says: "the video can not be opened". What should I do?
I don't know if its too late but you have to install the full program and not just the .Jar file www.cabrillo.edu/~dbrown/tracker/ (The Installer) you might also need a program called Xuggle which you can find here www.compadre.org/osp/items/detail.cfm?ID=11606....I had the same issue and this fixed me!
Douglas I downloaded video tracking from your link I have applied for a work at home with Assurance they send me an email to practice a window when I click on the link will not open the screen
I wonder how to achieve the best recording for Tracker, I mean a video with no perspective, just like the one shown in the tutorial. Anybody has an idea?
Probably. You might have to cut your video into smaller pieces, analyze separately and combine the data. If you have a problem loading your video try converting it to a different format like FLV.
If you have a high frame rate video (slow-mo) you should set the frame rate in the Clip Settings. Not sure what you mean by object not being detected. If you can see it in the video then you can track it.
Hello Mr. Brown, I would like to change the coordinate system as a function of time. I have a video where the camera is not being held stationary, and I'd like to have the axes track to lines on the background of the video automatically. Is this possible with this software? I have so far been unable to find how to do this.
+Daniel Walsh Easy--just uncheck the "Fixed Origin" box in the Coordinate System menu, display and select the axes, then step through the video and shift-click to mark the origin manually in each frame. If you want to do it automatically use the autotracker. For more info, see Tracker Help or look at the Tracker Autotracker Tutorial at th-cam.com/video/Dn0Zz7rtkZw/w-d-xo.html. BTW if it's a hand-held camera, you may have a varying tilt also. In this case you may want to use Calibration Points to set both the origins and angles.
+Douglas Brown Yes, I need to track both translation and rotation of the axes. I figured out how to autotrack a point mass in the software, but after a couple of hours I couldn't figure out how to autotrack the origin and angle of the axes. What am I missing?
More specifically, the issue is that when using the two calibration points, I can set one of them, and it autotracks just fine, but then when I go to set the other one, tracker "forgets" the tracking for the first calibration point. Why is this happening?
+Douglas Brown Great, I'm happy to have helped discover an issue. I ended up using the method whereby the origin and x axis autotrack, and this worked great. I was using the Mac OS version, by the way.
You can use any units you want since they are not shown, it just depends on how you calibrate. If you calibrate in mm, then the units are mm. BTW units will be included in the upcoming version 5.0.

You have to mark it by shift-clicking where you want the ends of the stick to be (see instructions on the toolbar). You can adjust after. You can change the preference to make the stick draw itself if you prefer.
iPhone 11 by default uses a new High Efficiency HEIF/HEVC codec that is not supported by Tracker. You can either change the video format in your iPhone (Settings|Camera|Formats) or convert the videos to a different format (eg FLV or MP4 with H.264) with a separate video converter application.

@@carlt9003 Hi Carl, that is a bug which will be fixed in the next release very shortly. In the meantime you should be able to enlarge the background mat with the Edit|Mat Size menu.

Hi Mr. Brown, thanks so much for the video. I've been having some problems with Tracker, though, and I was wondering if you knew anything about how to solve it. I can get an x-t graph from clicking manually, but I can't get a vx-t or any other kind of graph from it. When I look at the data table, it doesn't record any of those values. The only time it records those is when I enable auto tracking. Any idea what's going on here? Thanks!
Check to see if you have turned off auto-refreshing. Click on the right-most button on the toolbar and make sure the Auto-refresh box is checked. Choose Refresh to immediately refresh plots and tables. Does this do the job?
Check Help|Diagnostics|About Xuggle. If Xuggle is working right then it's probably a codec issue and you'll have to convert your video to a different format. There are free video converters that work fine. FLV is a good format for Xuggle.
Do you mean in the DataTool? Choose Help in DataTool and look at #6. Fitting mathematical models to data. Scroll down to the section "Defining custom fit functions".

how do i save a graphic?
You can copy an image of the main view, any other open view, or the entire frame to the clipboard using Edit|Copy Image. Or Choose File|Export|Thumbnail Image to save an image file of the main view or entire frame. The "thumbnail" can be full size--pick a size from the dropdown. Is this what you had in mind?
THAT NOSE WHISTLE AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
an url or a link to DL tracker ?
No idea what you're talking about. What is DL tracker?
@@trackervideotool Sorry Sir, please accept my apologies for my previous misformed sentence.
Is it possible to have an url / link to download your software "tracker" in order to test it?
Thank you for your help Sir.

@@trackervideotool Thank you very much Mr. Douglas Brown for the link! I wasn't notified by youtube that you added a response and I have no idea why ... again thanks for sharing with us Tracker.
I'am a bit early but let me wish you a happy new year 2022 Mr. Douglas !
This is your only test recording. Use this to connect your mic/camera and become familiar with the module. The next rounds will start automatically. You will have 30 seconds to prepare a response, and one minute to record. Good luck!
Please make sure your video stays within the limit of 10 seconds.
Good morning Mr. Doug Brown,
I am a desperate subscriber with minimal time to learn, conduct tracking of speed limits while recorded by a moving vehicle and save the results. Could you kindly help me at a fee in order to complete this task as soon as possible?
