For my final blog of the semester, I’ll aim to apply and synthesize everything I have learned into one exercise – video processing. What is video processing? A video is basically a series of images taken in quick succession. Hence, video processing is just image processing done on multiple time-related images.
In this activity, my partner, Julia Negre, and I aim to verify conservation of energy in a coupled pendulum system (see diagram below).
It’s basically two simple pendulums tied to a taut string. It is key that the oscillations be restricted to the axis perpendicular to the pendula’s separation.
