The Tring-based group has updated its SIM ultra fast framing camera to measure the temperature at different points in a high-speed event
The SIM ultra fast framing camera is currently able to capture up to 32 images at 1 billion frames per second.
It does this by simultaneously capturing images on a variety of selected channels.
By fitting each optical channel with wavelength filters (400-900nm) software will enable the SIM camera to combine two images from two different wavelengths to give a precise temperature reading from selected points in an event.
Unlike traditional ultra fast framing cameras, the optical design of SIM cameras provide the choice of up to 16 separate optical channels.
The company claims that effects such as parallax and shading, inherent in other designs, are eliminated and the high spatial resolution (> 50 lp/mm) is the same from frame to frame and in both axes.
