The Future of Photography

There is no better picture than the picture we get with our human eye. However, will there ever be a camera that will be able to compose images that compare to what we see with our everyday eye? Well according to about.com there is. Researchers at the University of Northwestern in Illinois and the University of Illinois have been developing technologies to hopefully one day create a camera capable of taking photographs that have an equal quality to the human eye. The main concept is creating a curved image sensor for the camera lens, that is equal to the curved human eye. This rises the question will cameras someday match the quality of the human eye? Also, can the camera image even surpass the quality of what the human eye can see?
