"Ramesh Raskar presents femto-photography, a new type of imaging so fast it visualizes the world one trillion frames per second, so detailed it shows light itself in motion. This technology may someday be used to build cameras that can look “around” corners or see inside the body without X-rays."

Mines the MIT invention of Femto photography which captures frames at well beyond the speed of light, making possible the perceived slowing down of a laser light as it moves.
Notes that there are many implications for the future of this technology and that MIT makes all of their information open source so that others can build upon their work.
