Lytro – focus later

Lytro Description

Lytro is developing a new type of camera that

dramatically changes photography for the first time

since the 1800s. Rather than just capturing one plane of

light, it captures the entire light field around a picture,

all in one shot taken on a single device. A light field

includes every beam of light in every direction at every

point in time. Experimentation in this field started in the

mid-1990s at Stanford with 100 cameras in one room.

Lytro’s innovation is making it small enough to fit in

your pocket. Really.

“It’s a nice business with very little paid-in capital. It’s gotten to $100

million and is a very profitable business in a short period of time. I
