I'm surprised that there's a patent like that - university researchers have been making custom microlens lightfield setups for some time.
If I understand the K|Lens implementation correctly, they stuck a mirror-based kaleidoscope in the middle of the lens. I don't know if there's anything extra on top of that.

There must have been a wave in popularity in researching this kind of technology. That said, I wonder what KLens has been doing from 2014 (when their patent EP 2 533 199 B1 was issued) until now.
