Firstsight Vision is offering low cost alternative for high-speed imaging for use with cameras that operate at variable frame rate but do not have their own on-board memory. Using a codec from Cineform Inc in conjunction with Streampix 3 software from Norpix Inc, it is possible to record images directly to a laptop disk drive or USB memory stick connected to the laptop in real time, with a choice of resolution and speed.
Applications could include assessing the events occurring during explosive phenomena such as automobile airbag deployment, troubleshooting fast moving machinery, or making measurements on products on high speed assembly lines.
