ADVANTAGES OF VIDEO ANALYSIS
Some advantages of video technology are:
1. There are no limitations over distances involved in video analysis.
2. Video analysis allows study of two-dimensional motion, like revolving objects and projectiles.
3. More than one object can be analyzed in any video, leading to detailed comparisons of objects that are in the same system.
4. Video analysis can be performed without all of the cumbersome wires and sensors. Videos can be easily taken with cellphones.
5. Most video analysis programs enable the user to examine multiple representations of the phenomena (graphical, data table, equation, pictorial) "side by side" in the same window.
6. Provides the students a sense of ownership of their investigations.
7. Data collection time is significantly reduced allowing for collaborative data analysis.
