The next digital image revolution? [Lytro, 3D, and movie production]

….

Tech it Up!: So what’s next? What else will light field technology let the photographer do?

Ng: By capturing the full light field, Lytro cameras provide an immersive 3D picture that goes beyond the conventional stereo 3D. Parallax and 3D functionality [which provides the viewer a chance to capture more of a scene, and shift the focus of that scene, like a gyroscope, adding a sense of movement] will be available later in 2012 — any living picture taken now can be viewed on a 3D display when the software update is available.

Tech it Up!: And down the road? Where do you see the light field capability going?

Ng: Light field sensors will become increasingly more sophisticated, capturing even more light rays to be useful for more advanced scientific, medical, commercial or industrial applications. Light field videography is also possible, creating entirely new production capabilities for filmmakers.
