The global 2-5 MP high-speed camera market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). A high-speed camera is an image capture device capable of recording pictures at speeds of up to 250 frames per second. The picture exposure is more than 1/1,000. Fast-moving objects are captured using high-speed cameras and saved as pictures in storage devices. These photos can be played again in slow motion after they've been saved. Electronic high-speed cameras, which take 1,000 frames per second, use either a CMOS active pixel sensor or a charged coupled device (CCD).

Increased demand for low weight and compact high-speed cameras are major drivers for the market. Furthermore, the growing usage of high-speed cameras in media and entertainment, and automotive and transportation are driving the market growth. The Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) seeks to improve traffic efficiency by reducing traffic congestion while also improving safety and comfort. It provides customers with advanced traffic intelligence, local convenience information, real-time running information, seat availability, and other features that support commuters save time while also improving their safety and comfort. 

In intelligent traffic systems, cameras, particularly high-performance machine vision cameras, are becoming more significant. High-speed cameras assist to avoid possible collisions, keep traffic flowing, and reduce the negative environmental consequences of the transportation sector on society with characteristics including real-time capabilities, extensive sensor range, auto iris functionality, and day/night functionality. Another use of high-speed cameras is in Automatic Incident Detection, which ensures rapid reaction to accidents and other obstacles, especially in high-risk areas such as tunnels and bridges. In March 2019, Phantom High Speed released the Phantom VEO 440, which can film an event at 1,100 frames per second at full 4 MP quality, 2,000 frames per second at 1080p HD, and 290,000 frames per second at the lowest resolution. The device comes with up to 72GB of in-built RAM and an Ethernet option with a data speed of 10GB to allow for the most efficient working.
