Living camera uses bacteria to capture image
New Scientist Breaking News - Living camera uses bacteria to capture image
Wish the scientists would consider making this available --- and also in some sort of bacteria other than E. Coli --- because the 4 hours it takes to make a picture, seems like it make it very amenable to use in pinhole cameras.
I'm sure they could use beam-splitters, and come up with different proteins that would react with different colors (wavelengths) of light. This could allow a full-color image to be build up, and at a resolution of 10,000 lines per inch. That's close to 400 lines per millimeter.
