Videokymography
The KymoCam camera is developed for the study of Vocal Fold Vibrations. The camera can be used in two different modes, standard and high-speed.
In the standard mode the KymoCam camera produces a standard B/W video signal representing a 2-dimensional image. In high-speed mode, the camera delivers 1-dimensional images at high speed (8000 fps), corresponding to one single video line. The line images are displayed below each other on a regular TV monitor creating a 2-dimensional pattern. The method, Videokymography, was developed as a low-cost alternative for digital high-speed imaging for the examination of vocal fold vibrations.

KymoCam for Videokymography
The KymoCam, developed by Lambert Instruments, is a video camera used for the display and recording of fast phenomena such as vibrations. The high sampling rate of almost 8000Hz makes the camera very useful for study and analysis of vibrations.
The KymoCAM camera has been developed in co-operation with Groningen Voice Research Lab, Department of Biomedical Engineering, the Netherlands and Centre for Communication Disorders, the Czech Republic.
