RDI Technologies, a global leader in Motion Amplification vibration analysis solutions, announced the release of three new high-speed cameras, which include the FASTEC Imaging HS5i and HS7i series and the updated Iris MX model. The new integrated designs combine the camera and a full PC controller, allowing the user to collect, store and process videos from a single unit.

The integrated design of these cameras offers users enhanced flexibility and ease of use. The HS5i and HS7i cameras’ high-speed workflow optimizes productivity and decreases data download time. Through its unique file transport system, the HSi Series allows up to 40 Gbps throughput, even when saving to externalSource: RDI TechnologiesSource: RDI Technologies drives. An optional portability kit converts to an on-the-go unit that is ideal for field work via a tablet that allows for wireless or tethered control. The kit also includes removable handles and an articulating tablet mount for viewing and controlling the camera. An attachable V-mount battery provides portability while the universal mounting offers flexibility in battery options. The portability kit is also available for the IRIS MX, allowing for rapid data collection by saving video directly to the camera for post-analysis without the need for a connected computer.

The HS5i model, with a 12-bit CMOS sensor on a new high-performance platform, captures images at 2560 x 2048 resolution and 253 frames per second (fps) and up to 29,000 fps at reduced resolutions. The HS7i offers full high definition at 1920 x 1080 resolution and 2500 fps and 35,000 fps at reduced resolutions for breathtaking slow-motion playback.
