Megapixel video camera works at high speed

April 19, 2007
Fastcam SA-1 camera features 5000 full-megapixel-resolution frames per second. Lightweight and compact, it is dc-operated with SDI and RS-170 video outputs. An optional particle-image-velocimetry facility is available to study the flow of gas in a wind-tunnel environment or to analyze flow in fluids. Other applications include missile and ballistics testing, R&D, vehicle-impact analysis, and biomedical imaging.

The design offers two memory configurations: 8 Gbytes with 6 s at 1000 full frames/s and 16 Gbytes with 12 s at 1000 full frames/s. The imager has a maximum speed at reduced resolution of 150,000 frames/s.
