It creates the illusion of movement by conveying a strip of perforated film bearing sequential images over a light source with a high-speed shutter.

Today, certain modern xenon flash units have the ability to produce a longer-duration flash to permit flash synchronization at shorter shutter speeds, therefore called high-speed sync ( HSS ).

The Kinetoscope was not a movie projector but introduced the basic approach that would become the standard for all cinematic projection before the advent of video, by creating the illusion of movement by conveying a strip of perforated film bearing sequential images over a light source with a high-speed shutter.

This is concern for scientific and technical photography, but rarely to general photographers, as exposures significantly shorter than a millisecond are only required for subjects such as explosions and particle physics experiments, or when taking high-speed motion pictures with very high shutter speeds ( 1 / 10, 000 sec or faster ).

When photographing sports or high-speed phenomena, shutter priority with short exposures can ensure that the motion is effectively frozen in the resulting image.

Plasma display panels are inherently high-speed devices as well, since they use pulse-width modulation to maintain the brightness of individual pixels, making them compatible with sequential method involving shutter glasses.

The term diaphragm shutter has also been used to describe an optical stop with a slit, near the focal plane of a moving-film high-speed camera.

Additionally it produced a 75mm f / 3. 5 lens with built-in shutter ( bypassing the focal-plane shutter for high-speed synchronization with electronic flash ); but most remarkably the speed of the 80mm standard lens was increased to f / 2, fast for a medium-format lens.

Due to the low level of investment in cross-border railway projects, the city has preserved a slot within the Thalys high-speed train network which uses existing tracks on its last 70 km from Belgium to Cologne.

The increasingly elderly high-speed rolling stock has had its speed limited to 120 km / h for safety reasons.

This has resulted in unexpectedly high demand for new commuter trips between the three cities and a corresponding increase in suburban rail passengers accessing the high-speed services at the main city-centre stations ( or Hauptbahnhof ).

In modern systems the performance difference between the CPU and main memory has grown so great that increasing amounts of high-speed memory is built directly into the CPU, known as a cache.

The availability of high-speed Internet Protocol networks has made the British film industry capable of working closely with U. S. studios as part of globally distributed productions.

The advent of the high-speed TGV link to Paris has led to renovation of the city's railway station while a new passenger terminal at Luxembourg Airport has recently been opened.

Alcatel-Lucent has been granted a contract in February 2007 to collocate a CDMA2000 1xEV-DO ( Revision A ) high-speed wireless network in Macau for China Unicom.

John Carmack has admitted that this was a serious problem which should have been fixed before release, but it was not caught because he and other developers had high-speed Internet access at home.

Since the mid-1990s, the Ministry of Information and Communications ( MIC ) has pursued a policy of high-speed telecommunication infrastructure as a foundation to build a “ knowledge-based society .” In the telecommunications sector, competition was allowed on an incremental basis and, in the market for value added services, full competition was allowed.

The Eskişehir-Istanbul section of the line is scheduled to be completed by 2012, and includes the Marmaray tunnel which will enter service in 2012 and establish the first direct railway connection between Europe and Anatolia. Second high-speed rail line, which has length of 212 km between Ankara and Konya become operational in 2011.

In physics, the twin paradox is a thought experiment in special relativity involving identical twins, one of which makes a journey into space in a high-speed rocket and returns home to find that the twin who remained on Earth has aged more.

The high data speeds of UMTS are now most often utilised for Internet access: experience in Japan and elsewhere has shown that user demand for video calls is not high, and telco-provided audio / video content has declined in popularity in favour of high-speed access to the World Wide Web — either directly on a handset or connected to a computer via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Infrared or USB.

Stroboscopic, and high-speed videos provide an option but in order to see the vocal folds, a fiberoptic probe leading to the camera has to be positioned in the throat, which makes speaking difficult.

To support its concentration of computing power, the NCCS has installed high-speed fiber-optic networks to expedite data movement, a scientific visualization center that enables researchers to analyze their simulation results quickly and comprehensively, and a high-performance data archiving and retrieval system.

Gallium arsenide ( GaAs ) is also widely used in high-speed devices but so far, it has been difficult to form large-diameter boules of this material, limiting the wafer diameter to sizes significantly smaller than silicon wafers thus making mass production of GaAs devices significantly more expensive than silicon.

Thus it was the preferred choice of that era for a high-speed backbone, but FDDI has since been effectively obsolesced by fast Ethernet which offered the same 100 Mbit / s speeds, but at a much lower cost and, since 1998, by Gigabit Ethernet due to its speed, and even lower cost, and ubiquity.

The traditional central station ( Hauptbahnhof ) has been reduced to the status of a regional station since the opening of the Hanover-Würzburg high-speed rail line in 1991 and its station ( Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe ) on the high-speed line at which the InterCityExpress ( ICE ) and InterCity services call.

Nice, being the point of continental France nearest to Corsica, has ferry connections with the island developed with the arrival of NGV ( navires à grande vitesse ) or high-speed craft.

This is in contrast to the traditional notion of a supercomputer, which has many processors connected by a local high-speed computer bus.

They were virtually never used with personal computers and have now been replaced by high-speed laser printers.

In June 2011, it was announced that planning had begun for a new high-speed rail line between Baghdad and Basra, with a memorandum of understanding with Alstom having been signed.

Introducing methods of photographing high-speed auto racing that had never been seen before, mounting cameras on the cars, at full speed and putting the stars in the actual cars, instead of against rear-projections, the film was an international success and won three Oscars, for editing, sound and sound effects.

Except for Russia and Finland, all high-speed lines have been built to this gauge.

Although ICs had been available since the 1960s, it was only in the early 1970s that they reached the performance necessary for high-speed applications.

Figueres has been connected since December 2010 to the high-speed rail network with the start of services connecting Figueres to Perpignan via LGV, allowing direct TGV services to Paris.

However, with the tiltrotor this problem is avoided, because the proprotors are perpendicular to the motion in the high-speed portions of the flight regime ( and thus never suffering this reverse flow condition ), meaning that the tiltrotor has relatively high maximum speed-over 300 knots / 560 km / h has been demonstrated in the two types of tiltrotors flown so far, and cruise speeds of 250 knots / 460 km / h are achieved.

Initially Dingle argued that, contrary to the usual understanding of the famous twin paradox, special relativity did not predict unequal aging of twins, one of whom makes a high-speed voyage and returns to Earth, but he then came to realize and acknowledge that his understanding had been mistaken.

While it had been believed that hummingbirds drink via capillary action, high-speed photography has revealed that the hummingbird's tongue ’ s tubes open down their sides, and close around nectar.

Hummingbird flight has been studied intensively from an aerodynamic perspective using wind tunnels and high-speed video cameras.

" It has been known that fleas do not use muscle power but energy stored in a protein named resilin but the researchers used high-speed video technology and mathematical models to discover where the spring action actually happens.
