Launched a super speed camera of 100 billion fps, capturing light movement

At a rate of 100 billion frames per second, this camera application will really bring breakthroughs in the scientific world.

Perhaps the slow-motion slow-motion concept is no longer strange to us anymore, with the mechanism of extracting from the higher frame rate to seconds, the more you have the chance to create impressive footage.

Although there are quite a number of camera products designed specifically for film production in the past few years, a group of Washington University scientists has the most "amazing" performance - potentially spin and record the path of the speed of light in reality .

" Usually a smartphone camera can record 30 frames per second, but our camera has a capacity of up to 100 billion frames per second," said Jinyang Liang, a research assistant doctor. , with Digital Trends. "The first time it was tested, it was able to go back to the whole moment of light traveling in reality. Sound elements could be within reach of the previous technology, but speaking of the light part is too Fast for devices to catch up. Our products create a completely breakthrough. "

Thanks to this advanced ability, scientists can now find out the answer to the question of whether or not light produces cone-like wavelengths of sound (and the correct answer as such). In addition to high-end camera hardware technology, the recording process also involves projection of green light-laser pulses of a 1/1-second-second cycle, directed at a pipe filled with dry ice.

It is indeed an unimaginable project, which has been posted on their materials by the research team, especially the achievements and abilities it brings. The application and future potential of this technology will help many interesting scientific aspects as well.

For example, Cherenkov radiation - a form of cone Mach wavelength - is often used to control the amount of radiation emitted, which you never thought would need a camera. In addition, Liang also said there is another important purpose that this technology helps a lot.

" One of the biomedical applications that we are very interested in is tracking the neurotransmitter movements of the brain, but it's too fast to be recorded by other cameras today. We I hope my technology can be widely developed so that the scientific community can use it and discover many other surprises. "
