edgertronic firing on all cylinders!

edgertronic

One of our favorite high speed camera companies has shared a lot of information regarding it’s COVID pandemic operations as well as unit shipments for their cameras. It looks like Sanstreak corp the parent of edgertronic is considered an essential business to the government which is probably because of the support and software development they do with clients for important government agencies. They have sold thousands of cameras to date and the company seems to be on firm footing to continue solidly into the future.

Their product line has the SC1, which is the 700fps 720p camera that started it all, as well as the SC2/SC2+ 720p at over 4000fps and SC2X over 2000fps at full HD 1080p. Check our page here for full in-depth reviews on these three cameras. Our favorite the SC2X is capable of a beautifully detailed and artifact-free image that can be used for cinema and broadcast. The SC2+ has the edge in frame rates with speed as a primary focus being able to record 6x the frame rate of the original edgertronic. The cameras have Color and Monochrome options if needed.

COVID and Its Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a toll on every aspect of our society. Our hearts go out to those who lost loved ones or have seen their lives change before their eyes.

COVID-19 has had an impact on businesses as well. Many companies have been forced to close or radically restructure their operations. More so than before, when you buy a product, you need to know if the company will be around for support, repair and future sales. We (Sanstreak Corp) and our suppliers are considered essential businesses and continue to operate much the same as we did before the pandemic hit. We are secure financially and you can count on us to be there before and after the sale.

It’s Opening Day!
Today is MLB Opening day and our little blue cameras have been a big hit with Major League, as well as Minor League, College, and High School baseball. Initially, teams were using our cameras for pitch design, coaching and training. Any fan of the game has noticed the pitching improvements in the last few years and we’re proud to be part of that. Now we’re seeing hitters getting into the swing of things and use our cameras as well. In addition, we’ve added a lot of features that help with the baseball workflow. Edgertronic cameras are now integrated with BATS, Pocket Radar, Trackman, and more to come.

Who’s Using the edgertronic?
We could tell you the names of all the Fortune 500 Companies, Government Labs, Universities and Researchers that are using the edgertronic, but then we’d have to kill you.

While we can’t give out any names, we can share some interesting facts:

  • More than 60 customers have purchased 2, 3 or 4 cameras
