Harold Eugene “Doc” Edgerton, was professor of electrical engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was also the inventor of the Mazda FT-17 Flash Lamp. It earned him the nickname “Papa Flash”.
The Mazda FT-17 flash lamp was the light source that made it possible to capture aerial reconnaissance photographs at night time from planes during the Second World War.
It was this aerial reconnaissance and intelligence work that contributed hugely to the Allies enjoying victory over the enemy in World War Two.
It was also one of the primary methods used for gathering intelligence about the enemy and their activities.
Night time aerial photographs provided indisputable evidence as quickly as possible at that time. Within hours of a reconnaissance mission, the camera images could be developed, printed and interpreted, often before daylight broke the following morning.
Papa Flash continued to improve the giant flashlight system as it was increasingly used for many more reconnaissance missions during the war.
There is one aerial image of the world-famous Stonehenge in England, standing alone on Salisbury Plain, which was taken during testing in August of 1944. Stonehenge proved to be a perfect subject for his night-time aerial photographic experiments.
Significantly, in 1938, one year before the start of World War Two, General Werner Von Fritsch of the German High Command had predicted, quite correctly as it turned out: ‘The military organisation with the best aerial reconnaissance will win the next war.’
OK, so how can a flashlight in the sky at night help you with your video marketing?
