Looking near and far without a lens: Radial masks give thin cameras a large depth of field
To take an image that is completely in focus, one of the most familiar parts of a camera—the lens—isn't necessary anymore. Instead, a thin mask over the image sensor can do the job. But the kind of mask you use makes ...
