60 frame per second video capture
and playback - VCRs and camcorders
only display 30 frames per second (even in slow motion and freeze frame). SportsCAD converts this video
into 60 frames per second so that you have twice the amount of information to analyze.
Support for Casio Exilim Hi-Speed
cameras - The Casio Exilim
cameras (EX-F1, EX-FH25 and EX-FH100) work very well in the software, and are capable of higher frame
rates (210-300 frames per second).

models - Download model videos
from our library directly to the software.
Analyze multiple videos at
a time - Dual windows can be displayed simultaneously

Best Video
Control - No VCR, camcorder, OR COMPETING
PROGRAM gives you better control of the video than SportsCAD has to offer. Play, pause, slow motion,
loop, scroll, frame forward & frame backward. With one hand on the mouse, you have more control over
the videos than any video camera or VCR can offer alone! Never fumble through a videotape
again.
Import Video from other sources
- Import Videos from the web. SportsCAD now has a feature that allows support for many
different video formats. You can import videos from the web, USB video cameras, webcams, cell phones, and some
of the newer hard disc/cd/memory stick camcorders on the
market.
The Import/Export tools
-
The Import/Export section will allow you to import or
export videos (as well as drawings) to or from cd, flash drive, zip disk or external hard drive. The exported
videos can then be imported into any copy of SportsCAD (Platinum or Home) for file sharing or backup purposes.

videos.
