We are now constructing a pulsed imaging instrument at beam line 22 in MLF (Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility) of J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex). This is the world first instrument dedicated to the pulsed neutron imaging, which enable us to make two dimensional image of the crystalline structure and nuclide composition and magnetic fields using the features of the pulsed neutron. This instrument also has capability to give the high-resolution images using a higher L/D option compared with other facilities in Japan. In this presentation, we introduce the current status of the instrument development and the prospective practical researches.
