Key Attributes of the Best Video Capture Software. Capture Tools. The ability to record what's on your computer's display is the primary function of all video capture software applications. All of the products on our lineup create videos out of these recordings.
Static Electricity. Causing Sparks and Lightning. A spark is a stream of electrons jumping across an air gap, heating the air until it glows and expands. Certain conditions can cause enough static electricity buildup to cause a spark or lightning. A spark often requires both a conductor and non-conductor.
HOW IT WORKS. The Lightning Bugâ¢ is based upon the science of lightning. There are two components of lightning; the bright white flash everyone wants to capture and the unseen infrared light that always precedes it. The Lightning Bugâ¢ uses a high-speed photodiode sensor optimized to the infrared burst that occurs just before a lightning strike. This infrared light comes from the vaporization of air and particles in the air. The Lightning Bugâ¢ acts as a lookout for your camera, watching for a change in infrared light. When a significant change of infra-red light over a very short period of time is detected, it directs the camera shutter to trip and capture the lightning in action.
