for materials testingfor research and developmentfor biomedical research

Overview
The Hyper Vision HPV-X2 is a high-speed video camera designed to record and visualize ultrashort phenomena that are invisible to the human eye. With capabilities suited to material testing, medical research and engineering, the HPV-X2 enables capture of events occurring in timeframes shorter than 50–100 ms and their playback at slower rates for analysis and documentation.

Key features

• Recording speed up to 10 million frames/second: industry-leading performance for ultra high-speed capture with wide, high-sensitivity imaging.
• FTCMOS2 image sensor: approximately six times the sensitivity of conventional sensors, improving signal-to-noise ratio and image clarity under equivalent optics.
• Windows-compatible control software: connect camera to PC via LAN cable for immediate configuration and recording. Recordings can be saved in a proprietary format and in common formats such as AVI, BMP, JPEG and TIFF.
• Synchronized recording and advanced analysis functions: supports integration with a variety of software tools for post-processing and measurements.
