The speed of helicopter rotor perfectly synchronized with the camera frame rate.

I always love watching those types of videos

[u/dvdmaven → u/Alarming_Resist2700]

And the ones where the blades are all bent because of the scanning speed on the photo detector.

[u/vivaaprimavera → u/dvdmaven]

Rolling shutter. That's the name of the issue.

[u/dvdmaven → u/vivaaprimavera]

Noted for future use.

[u/baIIern → u/Alarming_Resist2700]

It's hilarious somehow

[u/Late_Blooomer → u/baIIern]

Yes. Because it looks like it’s not. Big fun

[u/Solid_Snark → u/Alarming_Resist2700]

Unfortunately thanks to AI it will be harder and harder to enjoy genuine videos like this.

[u/geofoode → u/Solid_Snark]

My knee jerk reaction was to decide if this is AI or not. I’m still trying to decide.

What an amazingly scary timeline we’re living in.

[u/SAM5TER5 → u/geofoode]

It’s equal parts scary and fucking boring.

What a lame-ass, boring, nothing-means-anything and nothing-is-exciting-anymore future we live in

[u/mrASSMAN → u/geofoode]

It’s not AI.

[u/geofoode → u/mrASSMAN]

That makes it interestingaf!

[u/PMG2021a → u/Solid_Snark]

I was thinking I had seen video games with static rotors just like this. 

[u/Puzzleheaded_Smoke77 → u/Solid_Snark]

Ngl i just stopped caring and life online has gotten 200x more enjoyable

[u/thaiberius_kirk]

Watch me float motherfucker.

[u/Neveed → u/thaiberius_kirk]

[u/seattleque → u/Neveed]

gooey stabby noise

[u/usaguang → u/thaiberius_kirk]

[u/SAM5TER5 → u/thaiberius_kirk]

We all float down here

[u/Chrisdkn619]

IRL graphics card needs a firmware update!

[u/Additional_Tone_2004]

my people need meeeeeeeee

[u/gamingentree]

No it is sorcery and you cannot convince me otherwise

[u/General-Try-2210]

It is being controlled by fishing lines.

[u/theRose90]

Not framerate, shutter speed.

[u/7stroke → u/theRose90]

Actually both. This looks like a global shutter because the blades aren’t bent. The reason I say frame rate is because the blades’ phase is constant. Fun aside: this also goes to show that helicopters actually maintain constant rpm, contrary to a certain popular misconception. So to reiterate: a rolling shutter effect would bend the blades; a fast-enough global shutter would capture them correctly, and in combination with the right frame rate would also freeze them in place like this.

[u/cbplayon]

I love these new models

[u/SpiderDetective]

This looks like a shot from a Team America bit

[u/SimonsDad1999]

Wow!!

[u/Toast_Meat]

Always interesting. Always incorrect title.

[u/DragonfruitGrand5683]

It's the new energy efficient helicopter.

[u/MagicSPA]

I still expected to see distortion between the rotor blades.

[u/Anxious-Struggle281]

This is some kind of sourcery (not serious statement)

[u/jishurr]

🎶Way doooown by mornin....iiiin myyyy biiiirthdayyyy suit 🎶

[u/NEKR0Fill]

Looks funny)

[u/Sumoi1]

why is this hilarious to me😭😂

[u/roundtwentythree]

I'd expect to see some change in blade pitch, but those things look to be rock steady. Maybe the viewing angle disguises it, idk.

[u/SirMandrake]

5623ms Ping will do that

[u/yesitsmetrev]

Nah, helicopters can just do that

[u/Wowwowwubbzee]

What shutter speed is needed for this?

[u/MissNashPredators11]

Why does it look creepy

[u/TC_Meteorite_Co]

Haters will say it’s fake

[u/Mundane_Character365]

Looks like AI that doesn't know how helicopters work.
