Now that scientists have worked out how to create 3D images from just a single stationary lens, the possibilities are endless. Sure, it’s only able to film microscopic objects now, but imagine a larger-scale lens that could be fitted on cellphones.
The engineers at Ohio State University working on the project say the fingernail-sized acrylic glass lens is the first of its kind, and will allow microscopic objects—like bacteria—to be viewed in 3D, from nine different angles. [The Engineer via SlashGear]
