Image for Lytro

Lytro

Lytro was a company that developed innovative camera technology based on light field photography. Unlike traditional cameras, which capture flat images, Lytro's cameras captured the entire light field, allowing users to adjust focus and perspective after taking a photo. This meant you could change the focus from one part of the image to another, creating a more interactive experience. Lytro’s technology enabled new ways to explore and share images, though ultimately, the company struggled to gain a significant market foothold and ceased operations, with its groundbreaking concept remaining influential in discussions of photography and imaging technology.
