Tour the Dynamics of Change and Motion with Python

You learn to capture motion from images and videos, to compute velocity and acceleration from position data, to obtain velocity and position from accelerometer data, and to study differential models of mechanical vibrations.

What You'll Learn

Capture position data of moving objects from images and video
Compute velocity and acceleration from position data, using numerical derivatives (in free-fall and projectile motion)
Compute velocity and position from accelerometer data, using time-stepping to solve a differential equation
Pose a second-order differential equation as a system in vector form, and compute the solution in state space
Visualize direction fields and trajectories in the phase plane
