ObjectusVideo Home
ObjectusVideo Home is finally here
As an avid golfer, the creator of the StatDoctor golf statistics package, and a Mac user and programmer since 1984, I've been working on bringing a video analysis package to the Mac for longer then I care to admit. Unfortunately, this was impossible to do for a very long time. I know, I've tried.
Any Mac based solution was ultimately going to need to be based on QuickTime, or be written completely from scratch. Writing one completely from scratch would have been a huge undertaking, and there would not have been enough market support to even remotely cover the expense. And integration with QuickTime was not possible either.
All that changed, and continues to change rapidly. Apple has been re-writing QuickTime, and making it more accessible with each and every OS release since 10.4. And I have been working on ObjectusVideo ever since. Mostly in little fits and starts now and again. But as things began to come together, I started devoting more of more of my time (not just spare) to it.
The cool thing is that I've been using for my own swing since I got an early version working about a year ago. I've been looking at the first video I shot for analysis and comparing it my swing this year, and what a dramatic difference. My club head speed has increased dramatically as the extra movements I had been doing in my swing have been reduced. I can't wait to get the club head speed measurements finished up for the pro version, so I can actually see the difference. But I'm excited, as the club head just makes a different sound now.
I hope it helps you as much as it's helped me. And stay tuned. This is just the beginning. There is a lot more coming,
Joe

iPad/iPhone app
I think your app has much potential, and even more on mobile systems. Pedorthists, Orthotists, and Prosthetists can use iPad and iPhone apps readily.
Excellent, Simple, Powerful, and very Mac!
Excellent software. Easy to use. I'm currently using it for baseball hitting and pitching. I plan to use it with soccer, basketball, running, and swimming technique. Can't wait to be able to see improvements in bat and ball speed in the upcoming version. The software runs very smooth and quickly. This was obviously designed for the Mac!
Speed & Distance
Thanks a lot for Videomotion. It rocks. I use it mainly for swimming techniques (sorry my english is lousy)... and i can't wait for the speed measurements ! thanks again.
