  • Abstract
    Future cameras are used to "capture the moment" not just the instant when the shutter opens. The moment camera gathers significantly more data than is needed for a single image. This data, coupled with computational photography and user-assisted algorithms, provide powerful new paradigms for image making. The camera constantly records time slices of imagery. Although the input to the moment camera creates a spacetime slab, the moment\´s output typically consists of a single image. Thus, the processing primarily selects the color for each output pixel given the set of input images in the spacetime slab
