Abstract: The high-speed camera has become an important tool for both qualitative and quantitative research in the dynamics of mechanical systems. The wide range of resolution times and durations of interest has led to the development of a number of different types of photographic systems. Multiple-image cameras have been highly developed but are necessarily complicated and cannot give information continuous in time. For those cases where measurements need only be made in one space dimension, the streak camera is a useful alternative to making separate images. The construction and operation of a simple single-lens streak camera built to operate in the microsecond resolution range is described. It uses an open shutter and multiple mirrors so that the recording time is triggered by the event, either because it is self luminous, such as an explosion, or by allowing the event to trigger a light pulse of controlled duration.
