What is high-speed imaging technology? High-speed imaging captures more frames per second so that fast-moving subjects can be portrayed smoothly, or so fast motions can be analyzed. BS4K and BS8K broadcast at 60 frames/s, so to produce smooth slow motion video in TV program (mainly for sports programs), the video must be captured at an even higher frame rate.There are technologies that use specialized cameras and other equipment to perform high-speed imaging at up to 10,000 frames/s or more, but they are constrained to lower resolution and several seconds of recording time. On the other hand, the technology we are developing is able to capture several hundred frames per second over long recording times. We have developed an 8K 4x slow-motion system that can record continuously at 240 frames/s, and has been used for many programs (Fig. 1). Here, we will introduce an image sensor technology, which is a key component of the camera.
