High-Speed Video Camera

Image-based observation and analysis are essential in research fields involving ultra-high-speed phenomena, not only to research the fast dynamics of advanced materials or advanced devices, but also for plasmas and electrical discharges. Shimadzu has been offering high-speed video cameras with frame rates over a million frames per second since 2003. In 2012, the Hyper Vision HPV-X model achieved a speed of 10 million frames per second. Consequently, it has contributed significantly to researching ultra-high-speed phenomena. The new ultra high-speed video camera Hyper Vision HPV-X2 offers six times higher photosensitivity and ultra-high-speed recording speeds up to 10 million frames per second.
