Many important scientific phenomena require ultra-fast imaging to understand and investigate the characteristics of the event. Current methods of ultra-fast imaging that can obtain femtosecond time resolution rely on repeatable events or limiting the techniques versatility by completely remove the use of a dimension e.g. colour. FRAME is a novel technique which allows for ultra-fast imaging in the
