New Open-source Camera Could Revolutionize Photography
,----[ Quote ]
| Within about a year, after the camera is developed to his satisfaction, Levoy
| hopes to have to have the funding and the arrangements in place for an
| outside manufacturer to produce them in quantity, ideally for less than
| $1,000. Levoy would then provide them at cost to colleagues and their
| students at other universities.

Frankencamera: A Far-Reaching Open Source Camera Project From Stanford
,----[ Quote ]
| The concept of hacking digital cameras has been around for a while, and there
| are even books on how to hack filters, hack remote controls for cameras, and
| more. For the Frankencamera effort, though, researchers envision an open
| source community contributing camera customizations that become available to
| everyone. I can envision some photography junkies that I know getting behind
| that idea.
