107 - Visualization in fires with Matt Hoehler

If you ever wondered how to capture fires in photographs and videos so it is a real science, not just pretty pictures, this episode is for you. With dr Matt Hoehler we explore the world of visualization in fires - from just shooting the pictures, through composition and what is your target, to fancy techniques - water-cooling, blue light illumination and 360-degree shoots. We also discuss the role of audio in the further use of these pictures.To watch for yourself how the magic works, check this NIST website:https://www.nist.gov/news-events/news/2018/07/nist-unblinded-me-science-new-application-blue-light-sees-through-fireAnd to see how BOB was applied, check it here:https://www.nist.gov/el/fire-research-division-73300/national-fire-research-laboratory-73306/360-degree-video-fireIf you would like to learn more, here are some resources:Developing 360 camera setupsImaging through flames with narrow-spectrum lightUse of narrow-spectrum in the char studyAnd one of our own:Measuring fire HRR with cameras----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.
