The high speed dynamics of objects often need to be measured to analyze and optimize their position, motion and deformation behavior.
High-speed cameras are often used for this purpose but they generally have limited recording time. When very rapid movements need to be captured, this shortcoming becomes even more pronounced. TraceCam F is equipped with a new high-speed camera that allows for 3D recording of highly dynamic processes over unlimited periods of time.

TraceCam F high-speed camera
TraceCam F measuring system is built around a high-speed digital camera with the following characteristics:
CMOS sensor with 1.3 million pixel resolution. Integrated high-performance flash . Integrated image analysis processor. Very short shutter speeds of a few microseconds that are required for long duration tests. Robust, high-quality camera which is stable over time Data provided at a frequency of 485Hz. Measurements may be collected over long periods of time. Real-time analyses up to 100Hz when used with high performance PC
TraceCam F can be used for:
Motion and position analyses:
Analysis of wheel movement Tracking of engine movement Door slam testing Analysis of the closure process for hoods, convertible tops and windows Testing of body component vibration Control of industrial robotsAdvantages of TraceCam F
The TraceCam F measuring system is touchless. Measuring targets are very light weight and therefore do not influence the characteristics of the part being measured.
Point accuracy is about +0.1mm (0.004in) and angle accuracy is about 0.015° (for a measurement volume of 1.000mm x 1.000mm x 500mm). The integrated image analysis processor allows TraceCam F to provide data at the rate of almost 500 times per second. Measurements may be collected over long periods of time. The high-speed camera uses a high-performance flash and thus allows for the measurement of very fast motion of 50m/s and more. At the same time, any number of measuring points can be collected within the measurement volume. The measuring volume may also be varied to suite the application.
TraceCam F can be configured as a one-camera, stereo or multiple camera system. TraceCam F is therefore highly configurable and can be used for practically all highly dynamic 3D analysis requirements. It is also capable of tracking several objects against each other or against a reference. Movements and vibration of the measuring system can be controlled or eliminated. TraceCam F requires little set-up time.
