Thank you for the more in-depth explanation. The signal pixel camera is an interesting application. I would imagine one of the most powerful applications would be compression of files. Might make things easy for big websites like facebook. Or allow zip to make files smaller. Or a flash card that hold more information. I'd had to learn more about the technology. But EE standpoint there are two big questions: How fast is the process? I'd imagine that it work fast enough for images, voice and but not fast enough for video. I'd imagine the speed will increase as people start playing with it. And does the photo have to be compressed using the algorithm? The single pixel camera idea and many other signal capture operations really open up if you can just take a swab of the signal at random intervals. Perhaps a cool little program could be written to hunt for the necessary data points and capture them. This technology will definitely bring improvement to many fields over time.
