Stereo PIV System
SKU: MODULE4G-STRPIV
Stereoscopic PIV is used to obtain the three-component velocity field in a planar region illuminated by a laser light sheet. Also known as 3D-PIV, the fundamental principle is stereoscopic imaging: two cameras view the illumination plane at different angles and a 3D calibration is used to extract the out-of-plane velocity component in addition to the two in-plane components. Stereo-PIV data reduction provides the true particle displacements and online 3-D velocity vector field display.
