Applied Motion Study
A Collection Method to industrial Preparedness

MOTION MODELS 119 the quantity and quality of the output achieved and with the standard method finally derived, shows that the best method does not lie in the motion cycle, or in the consecutive motion cycles, of any one individual. The micromotion records are of enormous benefit here, in that they enable us, at any time and place, to review the methods used by each, worker, and to compare them. 4. The chronocyclegraph of the same worker performing the same work at different rates of speed demonstrated absolutely that fast motions are different from slow motions. They do not follow the same path or orbit. Micromotion rec- ords are here again of enormous assistance. Through them we were enabled to observe the worker performing the work at practically any speed that we may desire to see him use, as de- termined by the number of pictures projected per second on the screen. Those of you who have made a study of motion picture films, their mak- ing and projecting, and who have analysed trick films, where the people move far above, or be- low, the normal speed of real life, will at once realise the possibilities in motion analysis that lie here.
