High-Res Images Captured Superfast

Melinda Rose, Contributing Editor, [email protected]

Researchers Ala Hijazi and Vis Madhavan at Wichita State University in Kansas wanted to study the high strain rate deformation that occurs in high-speed machining by recording a series of microscopic images at such speeds. The year was 2003, and the duo had money in hand, courtesy of a National Science Foundation grant, to buy an ultrahigh-speed camera for their research. Because commercially available cameras were deemed too slow, too blurry, too dark or too difficult to interface with microscopes, the pair created their own system. The result was a camera that records microscopic images at...Read full article
