scientific instrument that provides a flashing light synchronized with the periodic movement of an object; can make moving object appear stationary
an instrument that is normally used in the industry to measure the speed of moving objects
a special kind of light that flashes in a very regular way
A device used to measure motion by using an adjustable flashing light to make moving devices appear to be stationary.
An instrument that allows viewing of rotating or reciprocating objects by producing the optical effect of a slowing down or stopping motion.
A stroboscope, also known as a strobe, is an instrument used to make a cyclically moving object appear to be slow-moving or stationary. The principle is used for the study of rotating, reciprocating, oscillating or vibrating objects. Machine parts and vibrating strings are common examples.
