I think the "Lightfield" technology were discussed here previously, but apparently they actually managed to put the thing into production.
It looks like an oversized salt shaker though, and not a very pretty one at that :)
The lightfield technology does not have any focus in the camera, you select that in software after you have made the shot.

I wonder what this will do to video a few years from now.
