A computer science Ph.D. student [Ren Ng] at Stanford University has outfitted a 16-megapixel camera with a bevy of micro lenses that allows users to take photos and later refocus them on a computer using software he wrote.
(…)
Ng calls his creation the „light field camera” because of its ability to capture the quantity of light moving in all directions in an open space. It stems from early-20th-century work on integral photography, which experimented with using lens arrays in front of film, and an early-1990s plenoptic camera developed at MIT and used for range finding.
By building upon these ideas, Ng hopes to improve commercial cameras’ focusing abilities.
