]]>Capturing high-quality, detailed video down to the millisecond is critical for detailed analysis of many Engineering and R&D projects. Moreover, when the recorded footage is paired with measurement software, engineers can extract parameters such as displacement, velocity, and frequency values, to name a few. This valuable data is used to gain further insight into the process of monitoring or to optimize. Engineers around the world rely on Chronos cameras when looking to track, measure, and analyze the fine details of their projects.
To substantiate this claim, the following projects are worth mentioning. In India, an engineering team has proposed a new technique to resolve the small vibration from cutting tools[1]. Their method can be extended to evaluate mechanisms of material deformation during the cutting process or to apply it in other engineering fields.
In Malaysia, a country with one of the highest incidences of lightning strikes in the world, a team of engineers used a Chronos camera to analyze fork lightning formation[2]. Their work can lead to the design of more effective lightning protection strategies for the safety of villagers.
Using a Chronos 1.4 high-speed camera, Luberto and Peyrebrune have built a low-cost particle image velocimetry setup[3]. Their setup can be replicated in regions with limited economic and technical resources to enhance educational activities.
The previous examples not only attest that Chronos cameras are used worldwide. They also enable engineers, educators, and regular individuals to have access to state-of-the-art equipment at an affordable price.

]]>Chronos high-speed camera systems offer the portability, ease-of-use, and video quality required by manufacturers, and industrial applications for maintenance and troubleshooting.
Monitoring industrial operations in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, robotics and automotive industries is critical to improving efficiency, and reliability and reducing downtime. Whether it’s packaging transport, R&D, or quality assurance, observing the fine details of fast-moving processes allows manufacturers to improve their operational abilities. Moreover, predictive machine maintenance allows users to determine potential areas of failure before they happen. This lowers replacement costs in the future making the manufacturing cycle more efficient.
Chronos cameras have been used recently, among other projects, to analyze arc welding modes used in wire arc additive manufacturing[1], to detect seed contamination[2], to select the ripe coffee fruit using a vibration-based approach[3], and to characterize tool vibration[4], instruments of common use in any manufacturing environment.
The all-in-one system includes a robust 5” display and battery pack perfect for portability when troubleshooting assembly lines in a manufacturing facility or R&D department. The ease-of-use virtually eliminates the learning curve and the affordability is perfect for a maintenance team’s budget, so they can focus on the work and not on becoming a camera expert.

]]>Chronos high-speed camera systems combine the high-resolution and framerates required to capture fast moving aerospace and ballistics events that appeal to both Engineers and enthusiasts alike.
Capturing high-quality, detailed video down to the millisecond is critical for detailed analysis of projectile launch, combustion testing, and explosives analysis. From the latest rocket launches to the enthusiast community and everyone in between, seeing is believing when looking to trace, evaluate, and calculate critical parameters encountered in aerospace and ballistics events.
Since 2019, Chronos cameras have been part of cutting-edge research relevant to the aerospace and defense industry, i.e. on propellant combustion[1–2], schlieren-based supersonic nozzle flow ejection analysis[3], and skin friction analysis[4], among others. Thus despite its short history, Chronos cameras are building a solid reputation backed up by the publication of results in leading international journals.
With up to 40,000 frames per second, Engineers can observe and evaluate the performance of rocket engines [5]. This is a rather interesting interdisciplinary research field, bringing together individuals of different backgrounds to develop solutions relevant to a large number of industrial and commercial fields.
