Strobe LEDs for Ballistics Research Net Metaphase $250K Army Contract

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
BRISTOL, Pa., Nov. 23, 2015 — The U.S. Army has awarded Metaphase Technologies Inc. a $250,000 contract to develop and manufacture advanced high-speed LED strobed illumination equipment for ballistics research. The equipment will be used by the Army Test Center and Army Research Lab in Aberdeen, Md. Metaphase's HiSLED high-speed LED system can capture nanosecond strobed snapshots of bullets traveling at speeds exceeding 3000 ft/s (2000 mph). Bullets typically don't travel a straight line to the target due to rotational forces. This travel pattern has a significant impact on the injury pattern created...Read full article

    Machine vision, also known as computer vision or computer sight, refers to the technology that enables machines, typically computers, to interpret and understand visual information from the world, much like the human visual system. It involves the development and application of algorithms and systems that allow machines to acquire, process, analyze, and make decisions based on visual data. Key aspects of machine vision include: Image acquisition: Machine vision systems use various...
