JC Labs manufactures high speed video cameras, recorders, and other video components for motion capture and analysis. The HSC-250 series of cameras will capture from 60 to 250 images per second, or 120
to 500 half images per second. The images may be captured electronically, or recorded on VHS tape using the HSR-200S video cassette recorder.
Applications for these components include:
- Combustion research
- Mechanical design and testing
- Sports training and rehabilitation
- Biomechanics research
- Medical testing, including gait analysis
- Image capture for computerized animation
Two recent papers published in Journal of Bacteriology
and Neuron
showcase some uses of high speed video. The resolution and sensitivity of
the HSC-500x2 allowed the imaging and measurement of individual flagellar
filaments (approximately 0.012 micron diameter) of Escherichia coli
swimming and tumbling.
The long record time available using the HSC-250x2 camera with an
HSR-200S recorder allowed rats to interact with their environment
naturally in neurological experiments while the GL-250 time text inserter
allowed correllation of video and neural recordings.
