Features of Cameras for PIV

  • 21-Megapixel high resolution

  • 200ns straddle time

  • 12Bit depth


In high-velocity flow fields, the inter-frame time (straddle time) is the most critical parameter. The Revealer G2100M offers an ultra-short 200ns straddle time, enabling researchers to capture particle displacements in supersonic flows or micro-fluidics without motion blur. This ensures the highest accuracy for Cross-Correlation algorithms used in PIV software.


Integrating the G2100M into Your PIV System

The Revealer G2100M PIV camera is designed for seamless integration into professional particle image velocimetry setups. Its operation is centered on precise hardware synchronization. The camera receives a trigger signal from your system's synchronizer, which coordinates the firing of your dual-cavity PIV laser (e.g., Nd:YAG). With an ultra-short 200ns straddle time, the G2100M captures two consecutive particle images with minimal temporal separation, which is critical for accurate displacement calculation.


The acquired double-frame images are streamed via its high-speed CoaXPress 2.0 (CXP2.0) interface directly to a host computer, ensuring zero latency and robust data transfer for the large 21-megapixel files. Compatible with standard PIV software packages like LaVision DaVis or TSI Insight, the camera works as a reliable data source, allowing researchers to focus on calibration, processing, and vector analysis. Pair it with appropriate macro lenses to optimize your field of view and seeding density for your specific flow experiment.

Frequently Asked Questions about PIV Cameras

What is the benefit of a 21MP resolution in PIV experiments?

Higher resolution (5120×4096) allows for a larger Field of View (FOV) while maintaining high spatial resolution. This is essential for capturing large-scale turbulent structures or high-gradient flow regions in a single experiment.

Can the G2100M be used for 3D PIV or Tomographic PIV?

Yes. Due to its high resolution and precise external trigger synchronization, multiple G2100M cameras can be integrated for Stereo-PIV or Tomographic PIV setups to measure 3D-3C flow fields.

Is the camera compatible with Nd:YAG lasers?

Absolutely. The G2100M's global shutter and synchronization circuitry are designed to work perfectly with dual-cavity Nd:YAG or Nd:YLF pulsed lasers.
