Just to clarify/echo the content of the video, they do not have a camera that is actually capable of taking 1 trillion frames per second. They are simulating that ability by having a laser continually shooting pulses of light, and then having the camera take a picture at a different slice in the travel of the photon by moving the mirror accordingly. Eventually the mirror captures every relevant interval of the path of the photon, composites the images, and generates an animation like the one with the soda bottle. Very clever piece of science and engineering.

6 frame per second version - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TI9xQC-3hu0 "

I think that this has to do with the frames per second that the phone can capture. a similarly unique video can be made if you record the propeller(s) on a single or double engine aircraft. this was a lot more fun to look at though.. and I really liked the song!

OK, I'll blame most of the discrepancy in details to the incredibly crapy quality of this video, I get about 1 frame per second at best and it won't fullscreen, so it's difficult to see anything clearly. I now see what you mean about the sheet metal/cab not being torn (but it was incredibly difficult to get it to stop on the one frame where that's visible). I think I also see the frame rail move, extreemly difficult to see, but it does seem to obscure part of the drive shaft when it breaks the cab mounts, then it does seem to rotate on that bend point and not break completely. My mistake. Still incredibly strange and possibly (probably?)faked, but not difinitavely. 'FAKE' retracted.

>> ^newtboy:
You assume the frame was bent in a flip. The problem with that theory is that the frame is cut clean through. If the frame rails were still there, bent or not, they would have made it impossible for the car (truck) to cleanly break in 2 that way. If you look closely, you can see the frame rails on the front of the vehicle, but not on the rear. It's possible the view is obstructed, but it's not possible that they both broke cleanly at the fold point, the same goes for the sheet metal. My guess would be it's upside down so they could cut the back half off easily.>> ^Payback:

It's not a car. It's a GM full size "Supercab" or "Cab Plus" pickup. The kind with the jump seats and half rear doors that only open when the main doors are open. What you are saying is a "cut through the back door" isn't a door at all. It's the back panel of the cab of the truck.
Looks like the frame got bent when it flipped. Also, the challenge with Chevys is AVOIDING bending them in half in that direction.


Well yes, that is an assumption given the frame LOOKS bent at the beginning, but you're mistaken on a couple points.
-The cab is not cut. What you see rising out of the water is a complete cab, with the rear window crushed and the panel just below the rear window pushed in.
-The frame is not cut. The frame has been weakened (like a power antenna in a car wash) and no longer has any rigidity. The point where the frame is bending seems to be at the rear transmission crossbrace or transfer case mount. The frame is acting like a hinge, about 3 ft in "front" of the cab-to-box gap. The rear most cab mounts have been ripped out as well.

The final magnification is 2.1x10^275 (or 2^915). I believe that this is the deepest zoom animation of the Mandelbrot set produced to date (January 2010).

Each frame was individually rendered at 640x480 resolution and strung together at 30 frames per second. No frame interpolation was used. All images were lovingly rendered by 12 CPU cores running 24/7 for 6 months.

oh by the way its 210 frames per second.

Sorry, I was referring to Flash on the iPhone. iPhone users can watch Youtube on their internet-enabled devices because they made a deal with Youtube that had that service redesign their site for use with the iPhone. Users still complain that regular Flash content does not work on their phones.

Recently, Adobe announced they were not going to put forth any more resources in trying to get Flash applets ported over to native iPhone language. They had been trying to create a tool that would allow Flash developers to create apps for the iPhone, because Apple won't allow Flash on the device.

MacOS is based on Unix, not Linux, so no, he has no say over what users do on their Linux machines. Regardless of what you think the reason is, 3d accellerated games run on OpenGL because there is no DirectX option there. That's why people are experiencing about half the frames per second, and there is a famous (and intermittent) issue with Portal right now (or it may have been recently patched, I haven't looked into it), where Mac players could not see through the portals, but instead, got the colored portal outline with nothing but black inside it. This has to do with Valve's adjustment to porting their code over to OpenGL so that the Mac will understand how to render the game. (As I said, they aren't as accustomed to programming for OpenGL as they are for DirectX.)

It's not "hating on Apple," but rather stating the facts as of this moment.

I captured the stream from these two ip cameras ... I think it was 4 frames per second, originaly. don't know which software I used, downloaded some free app from the web

>> ^Raaagh:
I watched 95% and loved it - just the frame rate made me quesy. How did you get the footage from the CCTV?


*promote, cause you deserve another dose of boredom. thanks for not showing up for my roast, you bastards

"Apple says you can only decode H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 48kHz. The only containers supported are .m4v, .mp4 and .mov."


Why purposefully limit this thing so much? The video resolution I can understand, but surely it could support more file types without much trouble. Low resolution, no multi-tasking, no flash, few file types... can it at least play music while using the browser?

i wonder what kind of frames per second they can get on Crysis with one of those

only 100 fps with an accuracy of up to 1 thousandths of a frame per second? If I had to guess I would say that it's 100,000 fps.

dude commas for place holders, decimals determine the fractional additive to the number.

Wow, wow, wow. This is the most amazing slow motion video I've ever seen. Didn't know cameras could do this yet. This is real bullet time.

From ^schmawy's link:
"Werner employs digital cameras that record up to 1 million frames per second, with effective shutter speeds as fast as 1.5 nano-seconds."

Mythbusters needs to get a pair of these ASAP

I was... tired at the time.... tired!

Now where did I leave my glasses?
