11. Laser Illumination For High-Speed Imaging 5/24/2017

    An incorrect or poorly lit subject affects the image, regardless of camera system quality. Therefore, the illumination source is just as important as the camera's resolution and sensitivity. See how a laser can be used for illumination in these four high-speed imaging application examples.

12. Using A Photron FASTCAM Camera For Particle Imaging Velocimetry (PIV) 10/6/2016

    Particle imaging velocimetry (PIV) can be extremely useful for the analysis of turbulent flow, transient flow, micro flow, and 3D volumetric flow studies within automotive, aerospace, bio-tech/medical, marine propulsion, electronics, and scientific research industries. 

13. Shadowgraphy Imaging Technique 8/3/2016

    Using the backlight/shadowgraphy imaging technique can provide high-contrast object images for a better understanding of an object's shape or size. This application note looks further into this imaging method and walks through its optical setup and its application uses.

14. Material Deformation Kinematics Captured By High-Speed Digital Cameras at 10,000 Frames Per Second 6/8/2015

    This case study describes a study on material deformation using the high-speed camera FASTCAM SA4.
