Motion detector

Ever tried to copy what someone else is doing? You may think you're doing a great job, but the difference could be Huge! Well, using a motion detector, you allow yourself to test out how well you can match a chart using your own movements. When I first heard of this lab, I thought to myself how easy it was going to be. Boy was I wrong!

This lab had two main parts to it. Distance and velocity. Then, there's this motion detector which we had to use. This motion detector would record your speed/distance onto a chart. We had to match distance and velocity to graphs in relation to time. Distance was relatively easier than velocity, or should I say A Lot easier. The hardest part was probably changing your velocity suddenly in a split second. Despite all these difficulties, our group came through just fine with teamwork.

Enough words. Here's one of the graphs we've accomplished.
