I'm using the PS3 eye camera. These cameras were designed for motion tracking applications with the PS3 Move system so they are great for recording the vault. The output is 640x480 at 60 FPS. While it is not HD, it is plenty clear to review vaults and I consciously chose the high framerate over high...

The software I am using required some modifications to make everything work, but now it is running great! At first I tried using an IR remote with a usb receiver which gave me about a 25 ft range, but I had to point the remote at the receiver which got quite annoying after a few jumps. I upgraded to...

At m...

Is the camera switching frame rates in the middle of the video, or is the slow motion your own post-processing of the video?

Hey Vaulters & Coaches, I was wondering what video recording systems people are currently using for training (handheld camcorder, DVR, etc...)? Also, what made you choose that system? I want to try to design a system that will provide the similar functionality to some of the more expensive profe...
