Ultra-High-Speed Illumination in Cameras up to 10 MHz

Cavitar’s CAVILUX Smart UHS is a robust pulsed diode laser light source that features very short pulses and extremely high repetition rates. It is perfect for ultra-high-speed cameras up to 10 MHz.

The CAVILUX Smart UHS is capable of producing pulsed light power of hundreds of watts down to 10 ns pulses. Typically, the light output is monochromatic with a low degree of coherence. This feature makes CAVILUX Smart UHS suitable for illumination purposes since no speckle or chromatic aberrations are present.
