High Speed Ballistic Impact & Digital Image Correlation

The VIC-3D (HS) digital image correlation system is a high-speed measurement system for full-field shape, displacements, velocities, strains, and much more. Systems with frame rates from 1,000 to 500,000 Hz are available, and configurations are customized to your applications and budget. See the VIC-3D Ultra High-Speed system page for frame rates up to 5MHz. Our systems are streamlined and integrated with supported high-speed cameras with acquisition software VIC-Snap HS, which allows the user to acquire calibration and test images with ease. Synchronized images are seamlessly acquired and saved in the correct format for fast data analysis in VIC-3D.

The VIC-3D HS system includes all the benefits of the standard VIC-3D system in addition to fully-integrated high-speed cameras. Shape, movement, and strain are tracked and computed for every data point (pixel subset) within the field of view. Since this data is calculated in three dimensions, out-of-plane displacements are measured directly, essentially eliminating bias. All calculations are done quickly and automatically with the included VIC software suite.
