[comp.graphics] Measurement from Digitized Images

rob@maccs.dcss.mcmaster.ca (Rob McDonald) (07/17/90)

I wish to do the following:

1)	Videotape a machine in operation.
2)	Capture key images.
3)	Digitize points on the image to establish locations in 2D.

I can do #1 easily, with a grid in the background to establish the true
scale.  For #2 we intend to use a Willow VGA-TV board (NTSC video in, 
IBM-PC VGA compatible TIFF files out).  When it comes to #3, I can't
find any off the shelf software to help. I believe that something similar
is done in kinesiological studies, can anybody point me to the appropriate
software (or if necessary, hardware)?  Suggestions for other newsgroups
that might be appropriate to post to would also be appreciated.

If suffucient interest is expressed, I will post the suggestions received.
