microsecond timer between two events


hello

i looking way of timing air rifle bullet on distance of 0.1 m. velocity in neighbourhood of 200 m/s, time 1/2000 sec.
if resolution going 4 m/s @ speed, time 1/100 000 of sec.
it possible?

i going pin4 , 5 go high low , meassure time between that.
output lcd. have working millis() http://www.arduino.cc/en/tutorial/stopwatch , need better timer.

any help?

to 10 resolution you're going need efficient programming.  i'd suggest write timing routine in assembly make optimally tight, , i'd suggest disable timer0 overflow interrupt drives millis() , delay() avoid having mess timing.  if did around 1 or 2 resolution, depending on response time of sensors.

at rate, want using hardware timers on mega168 (see mega168 datasheet more information).
