An innovative technique for three-dimensional imaging is presented, which uses the ratio of intensities of a pair of two-dimensional images to extract timing information. The principal advantage of this method is the ability to measure position and time for an almost unlimited number of particles hitting the detector simultaneously. The detector is capable of subnanosecond time resolution and position resolution of about 50 mu m. The photodissociation of H-2(+) is used to demonstrate the capability of the detector.
