Number6 Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Our sports dept has put in a request for a sports / dance analysis software package. I know nothing about these apps, does anyone here have any experience and recommendations? If you want to know what type of software and what it needs to do then this is one package that I found that seems to do the right things: Video Analysis Software - Dartfish Any info would be useful. Thanks
jcollings Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Dartfish is the one we use here. Not cheap IIRC but the PE lot love it.
jcollings Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 I can't remember too clearly but I think £3 to £4K. I think that was for about 4 or 5 full package licences for teacher laptops then we got 30 cut down versions for students to use. It was in the days of Elearning Credits so people got a lot of software that way.
Number6 Posted July 8, 2009 Author Posted July 8, 2009 Thank you very much. A useful recommendation and the estimated pricing is handy. Cheers!
plexer Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 How about some open source: Kinovea - Video Analysis Software for Sports Ben
gibbo_ap Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 PE staff + technology = trip to pub/shop for headache solving magical pills for me
Sylv3r Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Dartfish here as well - but it doesn't get used as much as it should. Head of PE is going to ensure its used a bit more next year though.
Crispin Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Dartfish is what we use here aswell. Good piece of software, but as another poster has said, not used too much. We have a GTP here who is very good with it though and it's now being used a lot more.
INeedAUsername Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 DartFish here too - not used greatly now, but wll be in the next academic year with a bit luck Had the chap come down and do a days training - well worth it in my opinion
Number6 Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 How about some open source: Kinovea - Video Analysis Software for Sports Ben I'm always happy to consider open source software - especially under the current budget constraints! How easy is Kinovea to use though? This is to be used by sport teachers don't forget! Do your staff get on with it OK?
dalsoth Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Dartfish here although i get the impression it is hardly used.

I might take a look at Kinovea so that all the sports teachers can have it. Ben
Gerry Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 No mention of this one yet: Quintic Consultancy Ltd: Quintic Software Not sure how much they paid for it as it was already in use before I started working here.
