3D Camera Smartphone Add-Ons

The 'Eye-Plug' Camera Device is a Light-Field Camera for Smartphones

— June 7, 2016 — Tech
The 'Eye-Plug' camera device is designed to enable users to capture content as it happens to enjoy afterward using 3D goggles or the like. Being that the 'Eye-Plug' operates like a light-field camera, it is capable of interpreting the environment it is shooting without glossing it over or enhancing it. This allows users to modify the content afterward or simply offer it as it is as a way to experience the scene in its truest form.

The 'Eye-Plug' camera device can be plugged into a smartphone and used with ease, and surprisingly only features 2MP capabilities. While this might seem odd, it enables users to apply more after effects onto the pictures and create more enhanced photography captures.
