Open Source Camera
I found this very interesting:
The full story is here.
The idea of being able to fully control and ‘edit’ your pictures as you take them is very attractive. Perhaps a whole community of ‘plug-ins’ could develop on top of this open source device? Imagine all kinds of ‘plug-ins’ to help you take panoramas. Or a photosynth ‘plug-in’ that prompts the photographer on how/where to take pictures to achieve the best synthyness.
Will this Stanford University project have the same impact on digital photography as mozilla.org had on web browsers (for example we all have tabbed browsing now as a result)?
