From the Far Future

A hot internet story yesterday was that of a new camera developed at MIT that allows researchers to capture video at 1 trillion frames per second. At this speed, the exact path of light particles can be accurately observed and even recreated. Though still very much a new concept in need of much improvement – and miniaturization – one of the co-creator points out the obvious potential for creating rich, expensive lighting simulations with nothing but software.

Certainly a major shake up for the traditional video studio, even if it’s still years off.
