Project Description

HiDyRS-X QM-2 Camera System.  The exhaust plume of the solid rocket motor is brighter than that of a liquid fueled rocket engine. SSC and I2R created a four-camera system to compensate.

At Stennis Space Center in MS, the ECI team is developing a high speed video camera that records fast-moving objects/events, which incorporates the use of high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. This combined novel imaging technique will enable one camera to create a greater dynamic range of luminosity--not previously achievable using standard digital imaging techniques. Adding HDR imaging will increase the camera's light range so that multiple light levels can be captured with high speed video, and image washout (saturation) can be effectively eliminated. This capability housed within one camera does not currently exist.
