New Crash Test Dummies. IDT Cameras show new dummies in action. PMG in Montreal is a test facility for the Canadian government. All cars purchased in Canada must pass safety testing done at PMG. The following video was shot in 4K by Canadian television (the equivalent to Discovery) to highlight PMG and crash safety. You…
Frame sync’ing cameras together is one of the main benefits of using digital high speed cameras rather than analogue. The idea of frame locked cameras was unheard of in the days of cine cameras. Until very recently, frame sync’ing wirelessly has just been a pipe dream. Most digital high speed cameras have cables for sync’ing,…
