#3It would have been pretty easy to use a horizontal line scanner to get image speed.
In any case, it seems that using a full frame video would be much easier to post process since frame to frame correlation tells you everything you need to know about motion.

#4they need to connect with the skunkworks team, they solved this problem on sr 71 long time back !

This is such a cool hack, just for the sake of it. Amazing hacking and amazing art!
In the preso, she has said the full size output is on the website-

I'm not sure that video would have been easier to postprocess. At what fps and shutter speed?
