In case you're curious, you can find the video analysis software I demoed in class today here. Or, search in the app store (sorry, iPhone/iPad only) for "Video Physics", the company is "Vernier." Cost is $2.99.
Also, you don't have to use videos taken from your iPad. You can download videos from the web, or use something you've already recorded and analyze that if you like.
As I mentioned yesterday, Dot Physics is a Wired blog that features a lot of video analysis, and written by a UA Physics Dept. undergrad alum, no less (currently a Prof. at Southeastern Louisiana Univ.). Prof. Allain is really an expert on video analysis like the simple example I showed you, and has some amazing (and crazy) examples of what one can do with a little patience.
