It looks like a Lytro camera, but going one step further. In general, the main idea is the same: using mask and then recovering the full light field.
While it looks that Lytro was/is not a great commercial success, I see that the field progresses. And very likely we will see things which can't be done in a different ways (e.g. pseudo-3D camera for videos... or 3d teleconferences).

- stared 11y agoIn Lytro there is a mask, but of a different kind - of lenslets. See e.g. this presentation: http://www.slideshare.net/cameraculture/3-intro-lightfields http://www.slideshare.net/cameraculture/3-intro-lightfields
