Light Field and Computational Imaging News
Today’s conventional cameras require a set of highly precise lenses and a large array of individual light sensors. This general blueprint limits the application of cameras for new uses, e.g. in ever-thinner smartphones, or...
Today’s glasses-free 3D displays ususally consist of dozens of devices, which makes them not only very complex, but also bulky, energy-consuming and costly. At SIGGRAPH 2014 conference, Gordon Wetzstein and Matthew Hirsch from the...
Remember ? The innovative light field capture method, developed by Kshitij Marwah at MIT Media Lab, allows users to convert ordinary cameras into light field cameras just by placing a coded mask film on...
Events such as concerts, public performances or weddings have two things in common: Virtually everybody’s taking pictures, and it can be quite unsatisfying to be in the wrong spot. What if you could just...
At its current development stage, light field photography (based on microlens arrays) poses a compromise between spatial information and resolution: The more refocus or prespective a camera is required to provide, for example, the...
LightField technology is without doubt the future of photography. But when will this future start, and who will bring the technology to the mainstream? Smartphone-Makers Apple and HTC are said to be in a...
