University of Sheffield awarded a contract to Dantec Dynamics Ltd for the supply of two stereo ultra-high-speed cameras for digital image correlation.

The cameras will be housed outside a protective blast chamber and in close proximity to safe structural experiments, enabling imaging of structural deformation from events such as blast, ballistic impact, or high-frequency transducers that require incredibly high framing rates.

The images will be processed through Digital Image Correlation (DIC) software.

The contract value is £332,989.
