Volvo crash dummies are busy these days and production company REZQ ( Gothenburg, Sweden) filmed the action in super slow motion HD3D at 1,000 frames/second. The impressive resulting video is now available on YouTube in HD3D.
Crash info:The footage is showing frontal offset- and pole crash tests with the Volvo C30 Electric and carried out at the Volvo Cars Safety Centre in Sweden. Front offset in 64 km/h and pole crash test in 48 km/h.
3D cameras info: The cameras were high speed NAC GX1 with a native resolution of 1280×1024. Framing is 16:9. One pair was mounted in a P+S standard rig and another pair in a Neutron rig. Another pair of cameras was mounted side by side at a distance with a longer lenses. The film was shot at 1000 fps even if the cameras are capable to shot at speeds up to 200,000 fps!

To watch the 3D video for a quick view go to YouTube 3D. But for best effect, download with KeepVidchoosing the highest resolution (1080p), and watch with StereoscopicPlayer on a big screen. Disparities are not too large, so you really enjoy this one on a large screen such as a 50″ 3DTV or a larger screen.
