Serious video-making and analysis requires serious equipment. For so many, though, the cost of this type of equipment is prohibitive, making it impossible to get the equipment needed for a job at a price that is feasible for home use.

The good news is, many companies provide a rental option for high speed video cameras. This can be essential for anyone who is analyzing moving objects or systems, such as mechanisms, biomechanical systems, projectiles, or human or wildlife movement. High speed video cameras (more…)

When a vehicle crash occurs, everything happens within mere seconds of the initial impact. When scientists develop safety systems for cars, they need to be able to see exactly what is happening to the time of impact. They typically will reconstruct accidents to see how everything unfolded inside the vehicles. Scientists can do this with the use of high speed cameras and other technology. The cameras allow things to be slowed down so the scientists can analyze various aspects of the crash. They can slow down the frame rates until each action inside the (more…)
