New high-speed electronic multiframing camera

摘要

Abstract: To meet the needs of engineers and scientists of the 1990s, Hadland Photonics have developed a new concept high speed camera capable of framing rates up to 100,000,000 pictures per second as standard. Recent surveys have conclusively shown that better image quality than that offered by current image converter cameras is a criteria foremost in the minds of those who use high speed imaging as part of their recording instrumentation. To this end, the Imacon 468 has been developed offering a high resolution camera with virtually zero distortion and intensity variation across the total picture area. Variable interframe, exposure, gain and image manipulation are fully controlled by a PC making this camera compatible with modern trends of data recording. The unique optical system, designed specifically for this camera, allows a single viewpoint for the multiple intensified CCD image sensors. Comprehensive software for controlling the camera, data transfer, and image processing is available for IBM P.C. compatible computers allowing finger tip access to experimental parameters.!0
