The original MIT video from 2011: "Visualizing video at the speed of light — one trillion frames per second" https://youtu.be/EtsXgODHMWk (project site: https://web.media.mit.edu/~raskar/trillionfps/)

He mentions this as the inspiration in his previous video (https://youtu.be/IaXdSGkh8Ww).

The slowmo guys did a video about a similar setup at CalTech https://youtu.be/7Ys_yKGNFRQ

It’s super cool that AlphaPhoenix is able to get comparable results on his garage. These academic versions use huge lab bench optic setups. They wind up with technically higher quality results, but AlphaPhonix’s video is more compelling.
