In the world of tomorrow, every surface will be a camera. Or at least, it seems that way. Researchers from the Computer Vision Lab at Columbia University have developed what they describe as a ...

Cameras are already embedded in a lot of devices, but what you could wrap them around things like a "skin?" That's the premise of "flexible sheet cameras" developed by scientists at Columbia ...

Researchers have developed a sheet camera with a flexible lens array which could be wrapped around everyday objects, turning them into cameras. The project, which uses elastic optics, could also see ...

A new bending camera captures images on a flexible sheet. The innovative technique suggests a future of cameras as thin as paper and as pliable as cloth. To get to a viable “flexible camera” concept, ...

Scientists from Columbia University's Computer Vision Laboratory have developed a prototype for a device they're calling a flexible sheet camera. The idea is to create a thin and flexible camera that ...

Using a technique known as nanoimprint lithography, researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW Madison) and partners have created a breakthrough method to allow the simple manufacture of ...

Researchers at the University of St. Andrews have created sheets of a flexible metamaterial that can manipulate visible light. “It’s a pretty significant step forward,” says Steven Cummer, professor ...

Researchers have developed a novel sheet camera that can be wrapped around everyday objects to capture images that cannot be taken with one or more conventional cameras. They designed and fabricated a ...

A new camera that looks like a flat sheet of paper is so thin and flexible that it could be wrapped around everyday objects, such as desks, cars, streetlights and even clothing, new research shows.
