Mathematics sits in a very different place w.r.t. other sciences. First of all, it's very meta. Yes, it can describe any phenomenon on our planet. On the other hand, advanced mathematics is a high mountain which is very hard to climb,

The sensor has special pixels which can detect phase differences in incoming light. Camera uses these pixels (aka embedded detectors on the image sensor) to be able to focus where you want. This is same from phones to professional cameras.
