    Vision Research Raises the Bar in the High-Speed Imaging Industry With the Introduction of Two New Phantom v-Series Cameras

    Vision Research, a leading manufacturer of digital high-speed imaging systems, unveils two additions to the company’s Phantom v-Series line of digital high-speed cameras with the introduction of the Phantom v1210 and v1610. These top-of-their-class cameras are the world’s fastest 1 megapixel digital high-speed cameras. They feature high definition and widescreen 1280 x 800 CMOS sensors. The Phantom v1610 is 60 percent faster than any other camera on the market, with the ability to acquire more than 16,000 frames-per-second (fps) at full resolution and up to 1,000,000 fps at reduced resolution.

    Both cameras are based on Vision Research proprietary sensors offering not only high speeds, but larger 28-micron pixels that allow for superior sensitivity when shooting in low light, which is often a problem with high-speed imaging. The v-Series additions make possible image capture at more than 12,000 fps (12 gigapixels/second) in full resolution when utilizing the v1210, and more than 16,000 fps (16 gigapixels/second) when the v1610 is called into action.  If higher speeds are needed, reduced resolution images are available up to 600,000 fps or up to 1,000,000 fps when the FAST option is used.

    High-Speed Cameras Facilitate Micro-Sight

    Looking through the microscope, a scientist takes a deep breath, and holds it. Random and jerky droplets appear, but move too quickly to be studied accurately. Using a high-speed digital camera, the scientist freezes the droplets in a series of images that can later be properly analyzed. This scientist could be studying the mixable properties of new paint colors, or he could be working on a revolutionary new vaccine.
