Kodak DCS400 in Nikon F3 body in early 90’s Commendable first 1.3MP digital but film cartridge still there! (First one in 1991 but even in 1995 the space for cartridge) Quote from Jack Tumblin Digital photography is like a caged lion that is uncaged in a jungle after years .. The lion stays in place rather than rushing out to explore Billion cameras but they all look like human eye KODAK Professional Digital Camera DCS-100: a camera back and camera winder fitted to an unmodified Nikon F3 camera
Wishlist by consumers and companies today .. i.e. what is NOT available today but they wish it was So, I am not including Wifi, GPS, face detection etc in the list here. But let us dream beyond this list.
Lets dream big .. Can we look around at something beyond the line of sight?
Can photos become emotive abstract renderings ?
How to exploit Sharp’s photosensing LCD originally designed for touch sensing and convert into a large area flat camera Since we are adapting LCD technology we can fit a BiDi screen into laptops and mobile devices.
CPUs and computers don’t mimic the human brain. And robots don’t mimic human activities. Should the hardware for visual computing which is cameras and capture devices, mimic the human eye? Even if we decide to use a successful biological vision system as basis, we have a range of choices. For single chambered to compounds eyes, shadow-based to refractive to reflective optics. So the goal of my group at Media Lab is to explore new designs and develop software algorithms that exploit these designs.
currently we solve the human visual perception problem by simply reproducing what the eye would see. (even for 3D, we show stereo pair) But this makes it difficult to understand or manipulate for computers. (machine readable rep)
Platforms = optics, illum + Applications + Social Impact
So how will the next billion cameras in people pocket change us? Will optically smart sensor help disabled people, portable devices improve social stability and pixel-coordinated activities harness the power of crowdsourcing for image-based commerce?
(add pic here .. Camera is simplified .. Medical imaging is not)
Very complex or very rudimentary
Beautiful theory but strikingly simple implementation .. Combination of simple optics and some intelligent software Based on wavefront manipulation
Moving towards penny diagnostics Click Diagnostics Hardware app store not just software app store, we have seen this with Wii and Guitarhero

So here is a preview of our quantitative results. I’ll explain this in more detail later on, but you can see we’re able to accurately distinguish the depth of a set of resolution targets. We show above a portion of portion of views form our virtual cameras, a synthetically refocused image, and the depth map derived from it.
photos will be computed rather than recorded Comp photo will be there It will change the workflow, just with digital many pipeline have turned upside down and we will even more At the same time with cameras that understand our world better, there will be a lot of new opportunities http://scalarmotion.wordpress.com/2009/03/15/propeller-image-aliasing/

= Material index and compute bounces (real vs fake) = Automatic 3D, phototourism, and 3D awareness (look around a corner) = Find relationship (network) between all photos = Understand the world (recognize, categorize, make world smarter bokode)
If you can look around a corners, firefighters can use such a device for planning rescue of trapped people without actually having to go in the line of fire

Very challenging but a new trend is emerging: in using the power of the people.
What is the key resource we have in India ..
The camera phone provides an easy interface to fill in and verify government forms. The paper form is printed with 2D bar-codes which are decoded by camera phone and info is transmitted to a central location.
Microsoft Photosynth and U-Washington’s Phototourism software takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and then displays the photos in a reconstructed three-dimensional space , showing you how each one relates to the next. New options on Google Maps allows users to post and view populated map with geo-tagged photos provided by Panoramio .
Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories captures photos of events. From their website: “Goal is to Document and educate Israeli public and policymakers about human rights violations in Occupied Territories. Second goal is to combat phenomenon of denial prevalent among Israeli public. We hope to create human rights culture in Israel.”
So how will the next billion cameras in people pocket change us? Will optically smart sensor help disabled people, portable devices improve social stability and pixel-coordinated activities harness the power of crowdsourcing for image-based commerce? Not outsourcing but image-based crowdsourcing

Shielded by screening pigment. The visual organ provides no spatial information, but by comparing the signal from 2 organs or by moving the body, the worm can navigate towards brighter or darker places. It can also keep certain body orientation. Despite lack of spatial vision, this is an evolutionary forerunner to real eyes.
