Scientists Develop Ultrathin Wide-Angle Camera with Flat Metalenses

Researchers have developed a novel compact camera that uses a variety of metalenses—flat nano-patterned surfaces used to modulate light—to capture high-quality wide-angle photos. The novel technique could allow wide-angle cameras to be included in smartphones and portable imaging equipment for vehicles such as cars or drones by removing the bulky and heavy lenses currently required for this type of photography.
