The use of particle image velocimetry (PIV) as a fluid mechanics tool is discussed in comparison with other flow image processing methods and standard laser anemometry. Attention is given to the PIV principle, technical problems associated with PIV, holographic recording, signal processing, and electronic detection. Some alternative signal processing methods, PIV applications, and future research needs are also reviewed. 101 refs.
