The V-scope: An "Oscilloscope" for Motion.
Ronen, Miky; Lipman, Aharon
Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, v10 n4 p41-49 Sum 1991
Described is the V-scope which is a Micro-Based Laboratory system that provides direct and immediate displays of real motion as spatial images (stroboscopic snapshots), as time graphs of any combination of position, velocity, and acceleration, or as vector diagrams of velocity and acceleration. Illustrations of system components and of typical experimental applications and output are included. (13 references) (JJK)
