THE LIGHT FIELD CAMERA-The camera that turns light into living pictures





The camera that turns light into living pictures

It is a new type of imaging technology called light field imaging. It allows you to change focus after the picture was taken, and also offers 3D stereo for your image. This is totally amazing tech, just think of what you could do with this. It is only a still camera, but what if this was a video camera? How about taking 3D stereo with only one lens? Seriously that would be totally cool, and to change or alter the focus of the image by just dragging your mouse over the image.

Once the picture is on a computer or phone, the focus can be adjusted to center on any object in the image, also allowing for cool artsy shots where one shifts between a blurry foreground and sharp background and vice versa.
The technology also allows photos to be taken in very low-light conditions without a flash, as well as for some eye-popping three-dimensional images to be taken with just a single lens.
