This Camera is Smaller than a Match-head

The Naneye camera is 1x1mm, or smaller than a match head, and does 250×250 pixels at 44 frames per second. The use? “medical, dental imaging, surgical robots, guide wire, disposable equipment”. The camera will remain fully operational at as little as 1.8 volts and can be used on a cable up to 2m in length. Ok, Portal 2 references aside this nifty device will aid all kinds of medical science from the general operation to...

This Is What a 120-Megapixel Camera Looks Like

This is a camera that shoots 120-megapixel panorama photos. And this is a photo it shot: That tiny, cropped area on the right, pulled out from the larger image on the left? That’s 1080p video running at 60 frames per second. And you can zoom in and out of any part of the image in real time. At the full 120-megapixel resolution, the camera outputs 1.4 frames a second at a data rate of 2.52Gbps. And this is the surprisingly small...
