I recommend Tracker (http://www.cabrillo.edu/~dbrown/tracker/). It is
written in Java and runs on Mac OS X and Windows. It is also open
source and built using Wolfgang Christian's Open Source Physics
library.
According to the author, Doug Brown, "If Cindy means just tilting the
coordinate axes at any angle, sure Tracker does it. The only limitation
in Tracker is it is always a right-handed coordinate system (+y-axis
ccw from +x-axis)."
I haven't yet implemented video analysis in my physics classes since I
don't have a video camera. However, I plan to do this within the next
year. When I do, I'll use Tracker.
