With current imaging technologies it is now possible to literally view light in motion as it travels through time and space. Ramesh Raskar (WiKi) the Associate Professor and head of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT Media Lab Camera Culture research group (wow, that's a mouthful) talks about what is possible and might be possible with a camera that is capable of shooting at an impressive rate of one trillion frames per second. Ramesh shows us a brilliant demonstration of a light beam as it passes through a Coke bottle. Ramesh also discuses a camera with the ability too see around corners like shown within the Enhance Scene (YouTube) from the popular 1982 sci-fi Blade Runner (IMDB).
