Excerpt: Nothing moves too fast for Andreas Velten’s camera—not even light. Last year Velten, who built the camera while a postdoc at the MIT Media Lab’s Camera Culture Group, made a video of laser light zipping through a plastic soda bottle. Capturing the equivalent of 600 billion frames per second, the slow-mo footage showed a ghostly light moving from one end of the bottle to the other. Equally remarkable, the camera can harness light reflected off surfaces to see around corners. Because the camera is so fast, it can detect how long it takes the different light rays to reach it, and an image can be reconstructed from that information.
