THE CHALLENGE:

A critical parameter of laser-driven projectile shock physics experiments is the flatness of the projectile as it accelerates to 1000 m/sec over a 200 micron flight path. A system able to capture stereoscopic images of the 3 mm diameter projectile at a specified Lime, and reconstruct a three dimensional surface from these images with +10 micron accuracy, was required.
