I call fake on this camera, at least calling it a trillion fps. It's not, it's a combination of extremely short exposures of an extremely short laser pulse, but the laser pulse has been fired in many consecutive events and by adjusting the timing of the exposure they get a different part of the light wave. So this technique only works on static scenes and is not true trillion fps.
Color me slightly confused. Asaide from the tomato, what am I looking at exactly?

Still amazing though, and nice images.
Also a video of a pulse going through a cola bottle.
