Scientists have created a blazing-fast scientific camera that shoots images at an encoding rate of 156.3 terahertz (THz) to individual pixels — equivalent to 156.3 trillion frames per second. Dubbed SCARF (swept-coded aperture real-time femtophotography), the research-grade camera could lead to breakthroughs in fields studying micro-events that come and go too quickly for today’s most expensive scientific sensors.
SCARF has successfully captured ultrafast events like absorption in a semiconductor and the demagnetization of a metal alloy. The research could open new frontiers in areas as diverse as shock wave mechanics or developing more effective medicine.
And if you were to watch it at 60Hz you would need 82+ years to watch that one second. Hope you know exactly where you’re wanting to look or can scrub it really fast!
Finally a use for the needle in a haystack multimodal LLMs for video.
Finally, it’s my 144Hz gaming monitor’s time to shine. I’ll be done like 50 years sooner than the rest of you losers.
I think you’re off by a few orders of magnitude. It’d be 82,000 years, not 82 years.
156T / 60hz = 2.6T seconds
2.6T seconds = ~82500 years
That’s what the 81+ means
Does that fall under “technically correct”?
Off by 81k years, sounds good to me
