December 18, 2007 - San Diego, CA - Photron, Inc., a global, high speed imaging system and image analysis software supplier, has been awarded the prestigious "Crash Test Innovation of the Year" award for their revolutionary Fastcam MH4, a multi-head, high speed video system. Automotive Testing Technology International (www.ukintpress.com), internationally-recognized and dedicated to the very latest R&D within the area of automotive test and evaluation, announced Photron's award for high speed imaging in November, 2007. Finalists are selected from all automotive development and research companies and judged by a panel of eight jurors for several award categories.
