Description: (curated)

Edgerton tried many different configurations of the elements in a stroboscope. In the top drawing, a neon flash tube is used, while a mercury (Hg) tube is tried in the middle sketch. By documenting successes and failures, these sketches give us some insight into Edgerton’s problem-solving process.
