This demo reel of the I-Movix SprintCam v3 is neat enough here, but you should really check it out in HD.

Before this, I never knew of Jello’s amazing antigravity properties.
It’s playing really slow on my computer.
Chunga’s Revenge cover by Gotan Project. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qyogxu5MLZA
Recorded at 1000 frames per second, played back at 25 frames per second. 40 seconds in the video represents 1 second of real life.
(At least, the 720p download is 25 frames per second. Assuming the other versions are the same, and that the frames aren’t modified, just recorded and played at different speeds, this is correct.)
The technology still have to reach the mass market and the clip is already pretty cheese
How much time before the deforming balls and bouncing fleshes will become the new video cliche’?
Of all the cool things that could be filmed in slo-mo, this is what they could get? The jello was the only thing even remotely approaching watchliness. Yawn.
Koyaanisqatsi was just as thrilling.
Wow, interesting use of Chunga’s Revenge. I would not have thought of using a Frank Zappa cover song for the soundtrack.
For those who wonder what’s up with the rugby players in pink at the beginning, it is actually the “stade français” the rugby team of Paris.
Once a regular rugby team, with beardy machos, they turned into a pink gay-friendly calendar-selling sex show, after becoming the property of a fashion bussiness-man, Max Guazzini.
Needless to say, this guy is hated by all the southern traditionnal rugby base, all that pink comforting them in their belief that Paris is populated of degenerated faggots.
See, no need to live in America to experience the war between sex-entertainment and rednecks.
No one has ever seen Time Warp, apparently.
That was an AMAZING Zappa cover.
Does anybody know who that was?
Sports shmorts , more of the bouncing weird jelly things please!
Could we get some video of this promising athlete at 1000 frames/sec?
I know there’s no better way to show off this camera’s abilities online than Vimeo, but if it was my product I’d worry that the artifacting would be perceived as coming from the camera rather than than the video service.
Still completely cool. The fumes from the fire breather, the pom poms and jello, and the other jiggly bits (ahem) were all amazing in slow mo.
Hey ARTBOT – what’s your Flickr page? Or maybe your Youtube user name? You must have done some terrific stuff since you find this such a yawn.
Y’know, I don’t own a computer that runs over 1.2 ghz. The eldest is just a smear over 450 mhz. They’re all macs, so they have half decent (if old-ish) video cards. And they all play online video well. Youtube, xtube, quicktime, wmvs converted to quicktime, no problem. Yet vimeo slows everything to a crawl every time.
What’s up with that?
The dropped pom-pom and jello almost look like sea creatures swimming gracefully.
