There is at least one reason that an itty-bitty sensor like this would be interesting - you could use all C-mount and possibly even 16mm or 8mm lenses with it.

That is a world of lenses that is relatively unexploited in the APS-C and M43 worlds. But honestly, unless this camera is both cheap and programmable, it's dead in the water.
