This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project will create a software-based, real-time, single camera, direct-to-computer, two-dimensional motion analysis system for education using image-processing technology. Image processing has not previously been used in educational motion detection. Compared to the commonly used methods--real-time one-dimensional graphing and frame-by-frame analysis of stored video--this innovation has many advantages, such as the simultaneous real-time display of video and graphs, multidimensional operation, ability to operate over any distance scale, display of the shape and orientation of objects, and the automatic generation of stroboscope-like images. This innovation creates the opportunity to surpass in learning effectiveness and ease-of-use the technologies now used widely in high school and college physics for the study of motion. In addition it will potentially reach a much larger group--mathematics classrooms from middle school through college. The system will operate with ordinary classroom computers and ordinary digital video cameras.Used in conjunction with inquiry-based curricula, Alberti's' Windows' system will be primarily used in physics and mathematics education classes. Improving the teaching of physics and mathematics is basic to science literacy and is essential to creating a technologically capable workforce. Ultimately, the following potential markets can also be explored: CAD/CAM, physiological/medical testing, sports, industrial monitoring and control, videogames, and security.

这个小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第二阶段项目将创建一个基于软件的，实时的，单摄像头，直接到计算机，二维运动分析系统的教育使用图像处理技术。 图像处理以前没有被用于教育运动检测。与常用的方法-实时一维图形和逐帧分析存储的视频-相比，这种创新具有许多优点，例如同时实时显示视频和图形，多维操作，能够在任何距离范围内操作，显示物体的形状和方向，以及自动生成频闪图像。这一创新创造了超越学习效率和易用性的机会，现在广泛用于高中和大学物理运动研究的技术。 此外，它将有可能达到一个更大的群体-从中学到大学的数学教室。该系统将在普通的教室电脑和普通的数码摄像机上运行，与探究式课程结合使用，阿尔贝蒂的“视窗”系统将主要用于物理和数学教育课程。 改善物理和数学教学是科学素养的基础，也是培养技术能力劳动力的关键。 最终，还可以探索以下潜在市场：CAD/CAM，生理/医学测试，体育，工业监测和控制，视频游戏和安全。
