University of Oxford in Great Britain desired a number of researchers to record both video and take pictures of the heart cells from the same angle at the same time, a task that was hard to deal with two cameras.
It has now led to the development of a completely new system using an ordinary camera and a DLP Chip from a projector that can record high speed video and images of an object at the same time.
The result achieved by allowing DLP chip illuminate an area of 4×4 pixels, one pixel at a time, in the 25th-part of a second chip takes a picture. Using a computer program, the image can then be divided into 16 under the pictures so that the 25 fps is at 400 fps.
The disadvantage is one solution which falls correspondingly, but it can, according to the researchers still follow højhastighedssytemer, costing up to 60,000 pounds.
By using the photo sensor and the DLP chip with high enough resolution, it managed to create a system to record with 6,000 fps.
In addition to having found a solution to their problem, so scientists expect that the idea can be used in ordinary cameras. A chip designer at the University has already been in the process of designing a chip that contains both photo sensors and micro-mirrors. A demonstration of the system can be seen below.
