Hi everyone,

First post here.  This is an ImageJ 101 question, but I'm a beginner.  Here's my situation.  I'm working on a project tracking head movement.  I took 5 seconds (300 frames per second) of video of my friend's head moving with a tracking dot on his forehead.  I taped a yard stick on the wall behind his head for scale.  I want to use ImageJ to find the x,y coordinates of the dot as his head moves.  How do I do this?  Are there any online tutorials that would help me?  Thanks!
