Whoah, that's an interesting video. Worth watching a few times to
understand. They use each microlens as 1MP of pinhole cameras.


I loved the bit where the macro shot of the crayons was brought
into full focus and then they faked a camera move, exposing
surfaces that were previously hidden. That was like the image
enhancement scene in Bladerunner. Spooky.
