Subject: RE: 1/10,000,000,000,000 of a second WHAT?
I have seen this before. Nice talk by the way! I don't think this is exactly
what it claims to be. The result is that but the procedure is possibly
a bit different methinks. What they may be doing is "range gating". Send out
a pulse of light and catch the returning reflected light at slightly
different times and in this time the light they catch is that which is
reflected from farther and farther locations. I think this is so but I could
be
wrong. It is not like they have a camera that does what we come to believe a
motion picture or video camera does in terms of recording so
many frames a second. At least I don't think so. Can anyone here enlighten
me? Comments?
That was my understanding when I saw this quite some time back - they took a
succession of images and overlaid them to 'fill in the gaps' so to speak,
crating the effect of a super high speed stream, kind of like stringing
stills together to create stop motion -perfect for it's intended purpose
which has little to do with time slices
