Abstract
For a long time society had the perception that research is important for its advancement. This led to the creation of funding agencies and research laboratories. Some of the fundamental discoveries that fueled the technology revolution were either supported by these organizations or developed at a research laboratory. Progressively government funding has declined and research organizations have either faded away or operate with a reduced agenda. So it is imperative for industry and academia to evolve beyond the current paradigm especially in areas of mutual interest. One such area is digital camera. In this talk, we review the evolution of digital camera from camera obscura to mobile cameras. We compare practices and assumptions in academia and industry, and briefly look at a few signal processing solutions that we have developed over the years for problems in digital camera. We present recent results to show the progress that has been achieved in computational photography and conclude with challenges and opportunities.
