Stanford open-source "Frankencamera" could revolutionize photography
,----[ Quote ]
| Stanford University (Stanford, CA) scientists say they are out
| to reinvent digital photography with the introduction of an
| open-source digital camera that will give programmers around
| the world the chance to create software that will teach cameras
| new tricks, meaning camera performance will no longer be
| limited by the software that comes pre-installed by the
| manufacturer.

Open source camera could pave the way for open source hardware
,----[ Quote ]
| Recently a Techrepublic reader sent me a link to this story from Science Daily
| about a professor (Mark Levoy) of computer science at Stanford who is developing
| an open source camera. The article tells the story of a fledgling program,
| Computational Photography, which researches photography to help improve cameras.
| Mr. Levoy developed the camera so that other computational photographers could
| help improve the software.

Frankencamera is open source, runs on Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Photo scientists at Stanford University have conceived what is probably the
| world's first open-source camera. Their contraption, dubbed the
| Frankencamera, consists of a Nokia N95 mobile phone camera module, circuit
| board, a couple of lenses from Canon and Linux for all the open-source
| goodness.
