Description

DRS’s Lightning® RDTPlus™ (Research, Design and Test) camera combines high-speed digital video, intuitive camera control software and powerful analytical functions with the capabilities of a standard PC to provide an integrated, high-speed imaging system with sufficient performance and flexibility to address all motion analysis requirements.

Consisting of a small camera head, detachable cable and custom frame grabber board, the Lightning® RDTPlus™ captures 512 x 512 resolution images at 5,000 full frames per second (fps). A blazing 100,000 fps can be achieved at reduced resolution for recording extremely rapid events.

The Lightning® RDTPlus™ features extended recording times to capture long duration events such as vehicle rollovers and missile flights. More than 13 seconds of full resolution recording at 5,000 fps are available without compression. Greater than one minute of record time can be achieved by reducing the frame rate to 1,000 fps. The ability to daisy chain multiple frame grabber boards further extends the record time.

A digital interface on the Lightning® RDTPlus™ custom frame grabber board allows the output of a continuous, real-time stream of digital image data. The digital interface is capable of streaming image data at up to 1.25 gigabytes per second—the maximum performance of the Lightning® RDTPlus™ camera.

Application areas include airbag deployment testing, bio-mechanical research, combustion analysis, explosives detonation, drop, shock and vibration testing, impact analysis and particle image velocimetry (PIV).
