Chronos high-speed camera systems offer the framerate, video quality and price-point critical to researchers at Universities. If you are considering the a high-sped camera for your research, please see a few of our use-case examples below.

The Chronos camera is suitable for recording complex phenomena that researchers, scientists, and graduate students aim to elucidate. The imaging system can be used in a wide range of departments from Chemistry to Physics, to Aerospace. Measurement techniques for fluid mechanics such as fluorescent microscopy, Schlieren Imaging, and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) are frequently applied in some of the leading R&D facilities in the world. Kron Technologies offers several options to fit a wide range of research studies.

Some recent applications of Chronos cameras include a cell traction force measurement strategy [1], the monitoring of a microbubble growth on an optical fiber [2], the characterization of the mechanical properties of cells [3], and the visualization of droplets levitating in an acoustic field [4].

Chronos cameras can record at up to 1000 fps at full resolution. At reduced resolution, the Chronos 1.4 can record at a maximum of 40,413 fps while the Chronos 2.1-HD can record at a maximum of 24,046 fps.

Our cameras offer all-in-one, high-resolution, high-frame rate solutions that empower demanding laboratory data analysis. Power up your camera and start recording high-speed footage in minutes with its easy-to-use interface. Also, extend the functionality of your camera by adding accessories such as lenses, and high-speed lighting.
