Very nice composite view of light passing through a bottle.

well, since being able to slow the speed of light, who's to say the camera is actually shooting at 1 trillion fps? plus,

to produce the video? hmmm...

point is, as much as i love science & technology, i trust neither

I need one of these cameras. How much does one cost? A few bucks perhaps, maybe less? If anyone knows where i can get one, please tell me. This is serious business.

Anyway, in all reality this is pretty cool. Never thought something like this was possible but apparently it is and the results are spectacular to say the least!

Nice idea, it'll only work for non-invasive footage though. IT would take a lot of coke bottles to shoot the same video of it being hit by a hammer and smashing. In fact, it would be impossible.

So the computer filled in the gaps as they took the equvilent of 1trillionth shots basically.

The laser was fired in pulses repeatedly. At various times a picture with an effective shutter speed of 1 trillionth of a second was made. Each individual picture was then assembled into a moving image. The light entering the first picture is not the same pulse exiting the picture, but the effect should be the same. This is the only way to effectively do this at this time unless you have a computer that can process and store 1 trillion images in one second
