Firstly, what does a fancy name like light-field cameras mean? It means cameras, which can capture all light moving in every direction at every point in space, i.e. light field. Let me put this even more simply. If you are sitting in a room, under a tubelight, the camera will capture every part of the room the light reaches. Like a cat follows a mouse, the camera will itself follow the light. You can edit the part of the image that you need and refocus, readjust using an integral viewer.

Apple's cash registers are still ringing like there's no tomorrow. The company has sold 37.04 million iPhones and 15.43 million iPads in three months. The jump in sales is attributed most to the iPhone 4S, once considered a disappointing iPhone, and iPad 2, which has largely been untouchable despite many 'iPad-killers' being released. Apple's net income rests at $13.6 Billion while its revenue comes at a scintillating $ 46.33 Billion.
