A Stanford graduate student has helped develop a digital camera that takes advantage of an operating system that would let end-users add applications to their camera much like they would to other mobile devices. This would open up a whole new realm of possibilities for software that can enhance the power of your digital camera.
Nearly all of the features of the "Frankencamera," including focus, exposure, shutter speed, and flash, are able to be controlled by software. According to Marc Levoy, professor of Computer Science and of Electrical Engineering at Stanford, "The premise of the project is to build a camera that is open source."
