This would be an overlay for youtube that gives you the option to fully load a video and then watch it in super interactive slo mo.
A weighted knob for really precise control of speed/direction of the video could be bought at the store.
Could be used for scientific research like behavior analysis. Sort of like the halfbakery.-- JesusHChrist, Jan 12 2011 You can do this on a Mac.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jan 12 2011 I just bought a cheap ($320) digital camera with HD resolution vs. high speed (1000 fps) acquisition. The tradeoff is relatively linear - the resolution decreases to 224x168 at 480 fps where I plan to use it.
I believe there are tools one can use to download u tube vids, then watch them at any speed you choose.
(Btw, I think most 30fps movies of moving objects don't look very good at slower rates - lots of blurring.)-- csea, Jan 13 2011 It could help with buffering problems, but surely all it can do is lower the frame rate?-- nineteenthly, Jan 13 2011 //lots of blurring// Even a cheap camera probably has a setting for a shutter, which will remove most of the blurring. However, you still might need to deinterlace, afterwards.-- mouseposture, Jan 13 2011 random, halfbakery
