  • Top Womens Squash player trains with MotionPro
    .
    Vicky Botwright, present world ranking 14, is training at the English Institute of Sport, with the help of two MotionPro systems, recently installed by Lake Image Systems to aid the analysis of her performance.

    "Having these cameras provides high quality instant visual feedback for performance evaluation, and subsequent improvement. Recording at 250 and 500 fps enables detailed analysis never before achievable" says Stafford Murray, Head Performance Analyst

    The cameras are used to capture the athlete in action, together with data from pressure plates. This information can then be analysed to help achieve optimum performance, and perfect timing.

    Motion and Integrated Data Analysis Software

    MiDAS is a modular software system, making it economic and easy to tailor a system to suit your analysis requirements.

    Deleloped exclusively for operation with RedLake high speed video systems (MotionScope PCI & MotionPro), MiDAS provides a comprehensive suite of motion analysis software, modular in design. You can choose a simple driver for your high speed video camera, offering additional control functionality and MS Excel analysis, through to full configuration.

    Optional modules include

    • Data Acquisition for the sychronised analysis of external data sources, such as accelerometers, pressure plates etc.
    • Auto Download, for the automated capture of events without having to return to or reset the camera
    • Auto-tracking, which will automatically follow a target within the image from frame to frame, and output the x-y data to MS Excel.
    • GPS/ IRIG, for accurate timing and positional data for larger scale tests.
    • Secure data encription

    Lake Image Systems provides slow motion footage for BBC2 & Channel 4
    .
    Lake Image Systems has provided footage from RedLake cameras for BBC2's Science Shack and Channel 4's Cricket coverage.

    Channel 4's Cricket Highlights last Saturday evening included a high speed sequence shot during the exciting first day action of the 4th Test between England and South Africa at Headingley. The HG-100K was positioned at the boundary, and focussed on the action of the bowlers and batsmen. This is the first time such slow motion has been used in competitive sports events.

    Adam Hart-Davies' Science Shack requested high quality, high speed footage of a locusts' jumping technique. Results from the MotionPro can be seen during the programme, being shown on BBC2 on Thursday 4th September at 7:30 pm. Set your videos!

    The HG-100K can provide broadcast quality images at up to 3000 frames per second, in high quality colour.

    MotionPro is the Winner!
    The versatile MotionPro, available in either colour or monochrome, offers unrivalled quality and ease of use for biomechanics and the analysis of sports events.

    The camera system fits neatly into your PC, and is capable of up to 500 frames per second at an impressive 1.3 megapixel resolution. Speeds of up to 10,000 are achievable using a reduced resolution.

    Add to this versatile triggering, multi-session recording and the ability to have multiple cameras synchronised for 3D anaylsis, and you can see why the MotionPro is revolutionising the sports science industry.

    When combined with MiDAS, the system can analyse data from pressure plates, heart rate monitors etc
