Sandia opens up ultra-fast X-ray cameras to speedy shutterbugs
But as these X-ray camera systems become more important to advancing nuclear fusion and other technologies, which benefit from high-speed imagining, Sandia is looking to make them more accessible to a wider audience. To that end, the lab is working with Albuquerque, New Mexico-based startup called Advanced hCMOS to produce a new line of x-ray imaging systems.
The project is being funded under the TRGR technology readiness initiative in partnership with the state of New Mexico and Los Alamos National Laboratory to extend opportunities for local businesses. Advanced hCMOS has been granted a license to commercialize x-ray imaging systems based on Sandia's existing designs. This means that if you're one of the numerous companies or institutions working on fusion power, getting your hands on a speedy X-ray camera is about to get a little easier.
While wider availability of these X-ray cameras will no doubt aid in nuclear fusion research and development, the technology isn't limited to this use case. As hCMOS founder Liam Claus noted in a DoE, the technology has implications for a variety of industries where ultra-high-speed imaging may be useful.
One notable example involves using the cameras to visualize the propagation of stress fractures in hardened glass — like the kind used in modern smartphones and tablets. According to Claus, the ability to see how these fractures form could open the door to more crack resistant glass. ®
