Pile Tracker
I am developing an specific system for piles motion analysis.
I am not an software expert, so for now I’m working experimentally in a manual way:
1-Using a digital high-speed camera connected in to the USB port of a computer I record a .mov file, saved to a folder on computer;
2- The clip shows always a standard label, whit two black square (I can change its colour format, etc…) targets, moving downward an upward;
3- Using Adobe After Effects, I open the file, manually click the two targets and run the motion tracker routine;
4- Then I manually select the track points coordinates, copy and paste them on a excel worksheet;
5- The worksheet does the final job.
I need a program that, automatically:
a) Detects and opens a new .mov file in the folder;
b) In the first frame detects de centre of the two targets, saving its coordinates (x and y, in pixels);
c) Tracks the targets motion, saving its coordinates, frame by frame;
d) The program results output should be an excel worksheet or CSV file.
