MIT Develops Camera with 1 Trillion FPS

MIT Develops Camera with 1 Trillion FPS

You have heard of high-speed cameras, but MIT's Media Lab has developed a camera that defies the speed limit. Their camera can capture images at 1 trillion frames per second. In fact, this camera is so fast, it can actually capture the movement of light particles. As you can see in this image, it features a single photon of light traveling across a set of objects. This super high-speed camera consists of an array of 500 sensors, each triggered at a trillionth-of-a-second delay, which are housed in a rather large body.
