Walter Isaacson before going biography of Steve Jobs in an interview said that Steve wanted to "re-invent" three things: television, textbooks and photography.
Speaking on television, we have heard of several reports about Apple plans to release TVs with voice assistant Siri in 2013 and his meetings with the leadership of the various channels and networks. The idea with the books has been realized recently, when Apple introduced the world platform iBooks 2 and iBooks AuthorDesigned to replace many textbooks in backpacks of students on a single iPad. The only thing that until now, little was known - Apple plans for the photos.
Many believe that the iPhone 4S, which allows to recognize faces, almost instantly make high-resolution images and record 1080p video and photo editing directly on the smartphone, as well as equipped with a high-quality 8-megapixel sensor from Sony - and is the realization of mobile digital shooting at its best a. However, Steve thought is much broader.
In the forthcoming book Adam Lachine "Life inside AppleĀ» said that in the last months of his Jobs offered life Rena Ng, a graduate of Stanford and CEO of Lytro, spend meeting. Once Ren Ng learned about the proposal, he immediately came to Palo Alto to discuss future product.
As explained Lytro, sensor allows them to "fix all of the light coming in either direction at each point in space." Of course, it would be nice to see this technology in mobile devices. Despite the high speed camera iPhone 4S now, Lytro technology will allow you to take pictures instantly. Lytro said that instant snapshots make their technology differs from all others.

Another key feature of the Lytro technology is the possibility of photographing without focusing on a particular object. If we assume the existence of this technology in the iPhone, it turns out that you just take a picture, and then using the firmware choosing which should be focus. While it is impossible to say when we will be able to see the implementation of this technology in mobile devices Apple.
