  This is a nice article about some recent work from my research lab. I'd be happy to (try to) answer any questions people have.

    > each design relies on a ball-shaped lens I probably just need to be thwacked with a clue stick, but what do they mean by a "ball-shaped lens" ? Might be ironic, but are there any pictures of the prototypes?

        That's some amazing stuff. Thanks for posting. I was curious if you're using off-the-shelf sensors or if you're using your own custom sensors?
