FlatCam detects a linear combination of light from multiple scene elements, and uses an algorithm to convert the data into images and videos. Prototypes that operate at visible and IR wavelengths were developed in the Rice University labs professors Richard Baraniuk and Ashok Veeraraghavan. FlatCam, the tiny chip attached to the circuit board, is a lensless camera that may someday turn large or small surfaces...Read full article
