Lytro Unveils the World's First Consumer Light Field Camera

The only camera that captures life in living pictures.

Lytro lets you take pictures like never before. Unlike a conventional camera that captures a single plane of light, the Lytro camera captures the entire light field, which is all the light traveling in every direction in every point in space.

Capture everything - instantly.
Capture living pictures with the press of a single button. By instantly capturing complete light field data, the Lytro gives you capabilities you've never had in a regular camera.

Focus after the fact.
Since you'll capture the color, intensity, and direction of all the light, you can experience the first major light field capability - focusing after the fact. Focus and re-focus, anywhere in the picture. You can refocus your pictures at anytime, after the fact.

And focusing after the fact, means no auto-focus motor. No auto-focus motor means no shutter delay. So, capture the moment you meant to capture not the one a shutter-delayed camera captured for you.

Share the love.
Don’t keep the fun to yourself. Easily share from the desktop or from Lytro.com to friends and family on Facebook, Twitter, email or your blog.

And best of all, friends and family can explore your living pictures – having fun interacting with them like you did – on nearly any device, like your mobile phone, your web browser or your tablet.

JustBeamIt Makes P2P File Transfer Easy

JustBeamIt is a beta service that makes transferring files a snap!

Drag and drop a file, < 2GB in size, into the drop zone (box with highlighted border). A link will show that you can send to share the file, and you should see the message "waiting for recipient..."

Once your recipient starts downloading the file, the progress will start moving. Do NOT close the page at any point until the transfer is complete, as this will stop the transfer. JustBeamIt relies on you keeping your window open in order to transfer the file.

After the transfer is complete, you will see the message "transfer completed!" You can now safely close your browser window. Everything is streamed from source to destination through our service, and no file contents are recorded on our servers.

Steve Jobs: 20 Best Quotes

"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."

-Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them."

- BusinessWeek, 1998

"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."

-Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year. ... It's very character-building."

-"Apple Confidential 2.0," 2004
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It is life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new."

-Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"That's been one of my mantras -- focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end, because once you get there, you can move mountains."

-BusinessWeek, 1998

"It's more fun to be a pirate than join the Navy."

-"Odyssey: Pepsi to Apple," 1987
"Picasso had a saying. He said 'Good artists copy, great artists steal.' And we have always been shameless about stealing great ideas. ... I think part of what made the Macintosh great was that the people working on it were musicians and poets and artists and zoologists and historians who also happened to be the best computer scientists in the world."

-"Triumph of the Nerds: The Rise of Accidental Empires," 1996
"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish."

-Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected."

"[Design is] not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works."

-The New York Times, 2003
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

- Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"There's an old Wayne Gretzky quote that I love. 'I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.' And we've always tried to do that at Apple. Since the very very beginning. And we always will."
"When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: 'If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.' It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."

- Stanford University commencement speech, 2005

"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me. ... Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful ... that's what matters to me."

-The Wall Street Journal, 1993

"I want to put a ding in the universe."
"The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it into a nationwide communications network. We're just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people -- as remarkable as the telephone."

- Playboy, 1985
"Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water, or do you want a chance to change the world?

-Persuading John Sculley to become Apple's CEO, "Odyssey: Pepsi to Apple," 1987

"What a computer is to me is the most remarkable tool that we have ever come up with. It's the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds."

-"Memory and Imagination: New Pathways to the Library of Congress," 1991
