Scientists develop tiny camera the size of a grain of salt

We Never Know

No Slack
Things just keep getting smaller. So if they are letting the public know this, then I would say they are already beyond it with more advanced technology.
In my opinion its things like this that is the reason there are so many conspiracy theorys about chips and what not with the vaccine.

"Scientists have developed a working microscopic camera that they say is the size of a grain of salt.

Developed by a team of researchers from Princeton University and the University of Washington in America, the camera can create full-colour images as good as ones produced by camera lenses 500,000 times their size.

The design overcomes issues linked with previous micro-sized cameras, which have often produced low-quality images with limited fields of view.

While a traditional camera uses curved glass or plastic lenses to bend light rays into focus, the new optical system relies on a technology called a 'metasurface', which can be produced like a computer chip.

The surface of the new camera contains 1.6 million cylinder shaped 'posts' which use artificial intelligence and light to convert what they detect into a picture.

Hoping it will be able to positively shape health outcomes, scientists say the new design could be used to help doctors take clearer images of the human body to help diagnose and treat diseases.

The camera could also be used to make better quality camera phones.

"We could turn individual surfaces into cameras that have ultra-high resolution, so you wouldn’t need three cameras on the back of your phone anymore, but the whole back of your phone would become one giant camera," Felix Heide, who helped develop the camera, said.

"We can think of completely different ways to build devices in the future."

Edit. For anyone that didn't open the link...here is a picture of the camera

Can only imagine how many violations of privacy there is going to be in the future when people can drop tiny spy cameras all over the place. :)

It's gonna be a hellscape, but the first thing that comes to my mind is a film. Drop a super tiny camera (presuming development of the thing of course) and let it just capture the candid lives of individuals as it gets passed around through their stuff. Would be difficult to make interesting (especially if it ends up just sitting in a bag) but I'd honestly pray to see hours of that.

If I was a conspiracy person, which Im not, but I know some..I could easily say if they can make a working hi-def camera that's as small as a grain of salt...they can make a tracking chip even smaller...small enough to pass through a syringe and needle.

Pretty soon they'll make a camera small enough to photograph my thoughts. Imagine, having a dream, and then wake up and play it back again on the computer. o_O

They are working on that but it's not small and it isn't a camera. High resolution brain wave imaging is a thing of current study.

Can i opt out of this world now :confused: honestly dont like techology
I love technology, but I would agree on this one as well in particular. People are going to spy on each other like crazy, nude images everywhere, schools, kindergartens, dressing rooms etc. And even if they are not as small as a grain of salt, people still do these things with much larger cameras, so as these get smaller and smaller, it is going to happen and it will be almost impossible to deal with as we know these cameras are going to be sold one way or another.

Also after they become popular it won't take long before these are added to drones as well or people figure out how to use them for all sorts of strange things.

Won't matter.
Tiny cameras in your clothing will point inward.
The only thing to do, then, is to register my naked image with Kodak. They crawl the internet looking for copyright infringements. They can help me clean myself off of it.

Do you think Kodak could be in on this tiny camera thing? Maybe this is part of their plan.

The Illuminati control all....or the Vatican...or the Jews...or the
Crown...or Big Oil...or the Patriarchy. I know it's one of'm.

Scientists have developed a method that can be used to record a person's dreams and even guide the dreams towards particular themes. ... The sleep-tracking device, Dormio is able to alter dreams by tracking sleep stages of the wearer and delivering audio signals when they enter hypnagogia.

They can do that right now and the technology was here for decades. For the purpose of spying you don't need grain sized cameras, the camera in your phone is enough and it's cheap and easily available.
A grain sized camera can go were a normal stethoscope can't, small blood vessels for example. That's a use I can imagine for such a device.
