What is being bought

Published requirement description

Imaging of structural deformation from events like blast, ballistic impact or high-frequency transducers, requires incredibly high framing rates. This will require two ultra-high-speed cameras, which will be housed outside a protective blast chamber and in close proximity to safe structural experiments. These images will be processed through Digital Image Correlation (DIC) software
