High speed photography is a technique that is used to capture exceptional images of objects in an extremely fast motion. These images are usually not visible to our naked eyes. A considerable amount of effort is required to capture the appropriate moment which usually disappear in the blink of an eye. Photographer tends to spend a lot of time retrying to get the high speed images that they desire which sometimes may take more than thousands of attempts to achieve. Fortunately, there are plenty of devices and applications available in the market that aids high speed photography. These products are usually accompanied with sensors and cameras. Cameras are often controlled by computers because computers operate faster and more accurately compared to the human reaction. This project aims to reinforce and maintain the features of the previous project to accommodate the integration of the Drop&Snap system. The focus of this project is to design and implement the Drop&Snap system that provides the ease and precision needed to capture the image of fast moving objects that are being dropped at a height. Using the combination of the hardware and software based on the Bluno Nano microcontroller and the Android platform, the Drop&Snap system is able to produce the best quality high speed photography with ease.
