I looked also at this exciting technology for our Navilas camera/laser. However, it’s not just processing that produces these effects,it needs a special sensor with a microlens array matching the objective optics. Part of our objective optics is the patient’s eye therefore, we have not been able to use it in our system....yet. My director of advanced development turned me onto another company in Germany called Raytrix who have been doing this kind of thing a little longer than Lytro. Their focus (pardon the pun) is towards industry and less oriented to the consumer market. I don't know if Lytro offers this but, Raytrix technology can also produce a stereo image from a single exposure.Their website is: www.raytrix.de Dennis Dennis Dowell MFA., MS.

However, the technology seems to allow you to only move the focal point within a picture. What would be much more useful (at least in my opinion) would be to be able to put the entire scene into focus. Anyone know if that is possible? Marty Rothenberg Angiographics, Inc.
