The FASTCAM 1024PCI from Photron is a PC based high speed imaging system to provide 1,000 frames per second (fps) recording at full mega pixel image resolution. A global electronic shutter, operating down to 1.5 microseconds ensures even the fastest moving objects are frozen, blur free, in every image. Used with Trackeye Motion Analysis Software provides a powerful high speed image and data capturing package. Trackeye covers the entire process from digitizing images (film or video) through automatic tracking and advanced motion analysis to a complete predefined report. The implemented functionality handles tracking in several levels, from 2D, 3D and 6D to the most sophisticated range motion analysis tracking requirements. Different objects or environments require different tracking methods. TrackEye has a large number of different tracking algorithms available for different applications. The TrackEye system includes a large set of predefined analysis functions. The functions operate on image data, imported data and results from prior calculations. Arithmetic functions, filters, speed, acceleration and coordinate transformations are just some of the available functions.
Applications:
Typically used for biomechanics, microscopy, and particle image velocimetry (PIV) and digital image correlation (DIC), 3D motion analysis in general and preventative maintenance.
