Visualization Technology that Drives Science and Technology
Visualization technology has been responsible for dramatic advances in medical care and the industrial sector. For example, the invention of the microscope allowed humans to observe microscopic objects otherwise too small for the naked eye, and radiography systems and infrared cameras are able to create images from wavelengths of light outside of the visible spectrum. Similarly, high-speed cameras allow humans to capture images of phenomena that are otherwise too quick for human perception. As an established tool in the field of ultra high-speed visualization, the HyperVision series high-speed video camera helps improve our understanding of ultra high-speed phenomena in a variety of fields.

DIC Analysis for High-Speed Tensile Testing of CFR
Both static and dynamic material properties, such as impact characteristics, are important for understanding the behavior of materials. Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) exhibit brittle fracture behavior with fracture progression that occurs instantaneously upon damage, and observing this phenomenon requires high-speed video cameras with excellent recording speeds and resolution. The improved resolution of the image sensor in the HPV-X3 improves camera performance for DIC analysis.

Observing Blast and Shock Waves During Detonation of Micro-Explosives 1
A silver azide pellet was detonated with a laser and the resulting blast and shock wave propagation was visualized in Schlieren images. The shock wave propagated around the blast wave and its reflection was visualized clearly in an aluminum alloy plate.
-
Observing Blast and Shock Waves During Detonation of Micro-Explosives 2
Images of the area around a silver azide pellet during detonation were captured at 20 Mfps. The images captured a blast wave that appeared approx. 450 ns after laser irradiation of the pellet, which was followed by the progression of a shock wave around the blast wave.

Expansion of Bubbles in Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) Gel
Images were captured of bubbles being generated while PVA gel was irradiated with a laser. Bubbles were observed to repeatedly expand and contract inside the gel. Images captured by the camera show the progression of shock waves produced when the bubbles were created and collapsed.
-
Contraction of Bubbles in Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) Gel
Images were captured of bubbles being generated while PVA gel was irradiated with a laser. Bubbles were observed to repeatedly expand and contract inside the gel. Images captured by the camera show the progression of shock waves produced when the bubbles were created and collapsed.
-
Observing the High-Frequency Oscillation of Microbubbles
Images were captured of microbubbles that formed in water when the water was irradiated and heated locally with a laser. The microbubbles first expanded then contracted and the images show a jet flow that occurs during contraction as the bubble disappears.

Observing Crack Progression During Ring-on-Ring Testing of Glass
Ring-on-ring testing was performed on reinforced glass and images were captured of the cracks that occurred during failure. (Reference standard: ASTM C1499)
