    Abstract: An ultrafast camera system includes a sensor head that injects an optical pulse train input from a pulsed laser onto a surface of a measurement target and outputs an optical signal reflected from the surface, and a timing detector that receives the optical signal whose time-of-flight is changed after passing through the sensor head and outputs an electrical signal corresponding to a timing error between the optical signal and a reference signal. Another ultrafast camera system includes a wavelength dispersion device to disperse an optical pulse train of a pulsed laser into a wavelength spectrum, a lens that vertically injects continuous wavelength signals dispersed into the wavelength spectrum onto a measurement line, and a timing detector that receives an optical signal including the continuous wavelength signals reflected from the measurement line, and outputs a timing error between the reference signal and the continuous wavelength signals as a signal intensity.
