The BBC reports on a new fiber created at MIT that can “detect the wavelength and direction of light falling on it.” The real point of the research was to coordinate the activities of different nano-scale devices. In this case, they were able to reconstruct a crude image sent by a small patch of these photosensitive fibers.
Clothes that could automatically photograph and store the surrounding area. That would be like the pimped out version of the little camera Gordon Bell wears around his neck. I need that like three years ago.
