High-speed analysis of projectiles and impact dynamics

Overview

High-speed imaging has been used in various applications by engineers in the defense industries, from crash testing to ballistics, high-speed cameras are used to capture and study these events. Advanced software is used to immediately process the video and calculate necessary projectile information to allow for quick and repetitive testing. Efficient characterization of military target infrared signature plays an important role in any countermeasure defense program for the design of unmanned monitoring systems capable of ranging and tracking different targets as well as performing automatic detection and recognition of potential threats. Furthermore, airborne hyperspectral infrared imaging can be for defense purposes use to identify and quantify gases on the ground from a safe distance. Featured Products: Photron and Telops.

FASTCAM Mini AX

The FASTCAM Mini AX is Photron’s highest performance model within the FASTCAM Mini series of high-speed cameras. The Mini AX delivers exceptional light sensitivity, excellent image quality and flexible region of interest (ROI) features for customers who do not require the ultimate frame rate performance of the FASTCAM SA-X2 and SA-Z, but would benefit from the same high-end camera image sensor features.

FASTCAM MH6

The FASTCAM MH6 system supports up to six compact HD camera heads (35.4mm x 35mm x 35.4mm, weight 100g), or 12 miniature ST camera heads (15mm x 15mm x 15mm, weight 15g). A combination of HD and ST camera heads may each be connected via a 10m cable to the main processor, facilitating a wide range of camera head viewing angles and mounting positions within the vehicle. All camera heads are extremely rugged and have been operationally tested to 160G. Each MH6 camera head, regardless of type (HD or ST), provides outstanding image quality and industry leading light sensitivity of ISO 5,000 color and 12,500 monochrome. HD camera heads capture images with 1080 full HD resolution at 1,000fps and are compatible with readily available 1-inch C-mount ruggedized lenses. ST camera heads capture images with 800 x 600 (SVGA) resolution at 1,000fps and utilize M10.5 ruggedized lenses.

Digital Image Correlation (DIC)

VIC-3D HS

The VIC-3D™ HS Vibration Analysis DIC System by Correlated Solutions, Inc. is a new addition to the VIC-3D™ product line of measurement solutions. This Turn-Key High-Speed Digital Image Correlation system can measure full-field, three-axes displacements during vibration events. Since the acquisition time is very short, the system is capable of measuring operational deflection shapes during transient events as well as the impulse response to an impact. The system achieves resolution in the nanometer range and provides full-field three-axis displacement as well as strain data.

Telops

Infrared / Hyperspectral Imaging

MS M3K

The Telops MS M3K is a high-speed multispectral mid-wave infrared (MWIR) camera. An 8-position fast-rotating filter wheel splits the scene into up to eight spectral bands for spectral-signature analysis, instead of a single broadband image. Built on a 320 x 256 InSb detector over the 1.5–5.4 um band, it reaches up to 3,100 fps full-frame and 100,000 fps in subwindow mode, with the wheel spinning up to 100 Hz per filter (up to 800 fps in synchronised mode). Ideal for combustion analysis, gas detection and other applications where material identity matters as much as temperature.
