Power supply to match solenoid specs Triad Magnetics #WDU24-300 or similar.

Solenoid, pull type, 2cm path length, 24V DC, 10W We used a German part, Conrad #HMA-3027z.001-24VDC.

ItвЂ™s got 4 relays youвЂ™ll use 2 or 3 for this project. Relay Shield for Arduino Seeed Studio #SLD01101P.

Arduino Uno microcontroller board Product #MKSP99 at.

But hopefully itвЂ™s good enough that you get the idea and start making! Our description here is not very precise (by design) as your parts and photography needs may vary.

ItвЂ™s not hard to build, but youвЂ™ll need to scrounge the parts from various sources and do some experimenting to get the rig configured right (more trial and error). WeвЂ™re now able to get the moment right in a repeatable fashion, thanks to an electromagnetic solenoid controlled by an Arduino Uno. Having played with Arduino a bit, we wondered whether we could take the guesswork out of getting the moment right, and after a lot of tinkering we came up with the rig explained here. Do a mental count of how long itвЂ™ll take for the object to hit the surface Before building this project, we relied on trial and error, somewhat along the lines of:Д«. Getting the moment right This is the real trick.Planning the shot What happens, whereвЂ™s the camera, how does the lighting work, in detail?.If the room is otherwise dark, this will freeze the action. Using a flash to вЂњfreeze the actionвЂќ Modern electronic flashes emit light for only a very small fraction of a second (less than 1 millisecond).There are three elements in getting high-speed splash pictures right:

In this project weвЂ™ll show you how to take perfect splash photos, the easy way-by precisely timing the dropping of the object and the triggering of the flash, using an Arduino microcontroller board. This photo was one among hundreds we took in a single night - the vast majority of them showed the cube not in the water yet, or too deep in the water. We had some success, but we were doing it the hard way. Together with a photographer buddy of mine (like me, a physicist by training), I spent several long eveningsВ trying to take great вЂвЂќwater actionвЂќ photos. TheyвЂ™re also increasingly seen in commercial images - look in your local supermarket and thereвЂ™s a high probability youвЂ™ll find an image of a strawberry, chili pepper, or banana hitting the water, captured by a high-speed flash. Photos of items dropping into water (or other liquids) always have the potential to fascinate - the dramatic splashdown, the explosion of flying droplets frozen in time.
