The camera has the 'fastest' shooting speed in the world

University of California scientists say they have succeeded in making a camera capable of taking 6 million images per second.

Of course this is not one of the most popular cameras that you can carry with you to make money. This newly invented camera takes only half a billionth of a second to take a picture. At this rate, it would be very useful to study fast-moving motions such as the activity of neural neurons in the brain.

The camera is quite complex and bulky in size.


The camera can capture high speed is due to the use of 2D image compression technology. The camera will produce a laser pulse that shines through the body and reflected light is transferred to the sensor through a fiber optic tube in which long wavelengths will be concentrated in the middle of the beam and short wavelength rays. more on the side. The camera sensor will take the task of measuring time deviation between light rays with different wavelengths and converting the encoded signal into an image.

The new technology, called STEAM (Serial Time-Encoded Amplifier imaging), will provide up to six times faster shutter speeds than digital cameras. The current. The camera can also shoot continuously or automatically at the right time that people can not manually correct.

According to Professor Bahram Jalali of the University of California at Berkeley, the camera plays an important role in fast-moving research such as chemical reactions, physical phenomena and especially medical research.
