Computational photography combines plentiful computing, digital sensors, modern optics, actuators, and smart illumination to escape the limitations of traditional film cameras and enables novel imaging applications. Unbounded dynamic range, variable focus, resolution, and depth of field, hints about shape, reflectance, and lighting, and new interactive forms of photos that are partly snapshots and partly videos are just some of the new applications found in Computational Photography.(Source: http://web.media.mit.edu/~raskar/photo)
