Abstract

The purpose of this study was to track trajectory of shot and to measure projectile variables of shot put throw for two-dimensional quantitative analysis. One shot put athlete was analyzed in this study. Recordings was made with one camera (Sony DSC-HX100v) fixed at shot put sector during inter university competition. The frequency of video recording was 50Hz and the resolution was 1440 x 1080 pixels. Using systematic video recording procedure the result given form the values such as angle of release, height of release, initial velocity, final velocity and peak height reached by shot was measured. The results of the study showed that the shot put throw depended on optimal peak height, angle of release, height of release and initial velocity.
