(Olympus NDT: Waltham, MA) -- Olympus is pleased to announce the introduction of the new i-Speed LT, i-Speed TR, and i-Speed FS high-speed video cameras. These new units complement an already wide range of industrial high-speed video cameras from Olympus and offer users a choice to select from a variety of models based on applications, features, and cost. Unique to Olympus, the optional Controller Display Unit (CDU) gives the user full control and live display of all of the features of each of the cameras in the range—replacing the traditional need for a PC.

The new i-SPEED FS camera is primarily designed for use in the ballistics testing market. Featuring highly accurate IRIG-B time synchronization (sub 5 microseconds) and time stamping, a global shutter speed user selectable to 0.2 microseconds, and a top frame speed of one million frames per second, this camera is ideal for ballistics applications. The FS camera benefits from Olympus’ years of experience in digital image processing—the sensor is completely sealed to prevent dust ingress and has extreme low-light sensitivity due to large 21 micron pixels—combining to generate unparalleled high quality images.
