Right. And with the initial cameras, which were neat but not breathtaking in their capabilities, you really only got a small ability to move around the scene. A larger sensor or a pair of these would offer greater capabilities for this application. I believe using an array of sensors was how their video camera worked, but I'm not 100%.

(I spent a lot of time reading about light field stuffs back when Lytro was first announced, I was also tangentially connected to a synthetic aperture radar project so it piqued a lot of my curiosity at the time. I haven't kept up with the state-of-the-art since then, though.)
