Sarzysays...This video makes it kind of hard to tell how well the function actually works, but I'll assume from the stunned reaction from the audience that it works pretty well.
syncronsays...Maybe they can implement it into After Effects or Premiere so we can make video less blurry too

No, actually. The video is about motion blur. The Lytro technology is relevant to defocus blur.
By the way, this stuff is apparently partly based on this upcoming ICCV paper:

And, like all science in the media, this silly demo does a terrible job at letting you know that this has been an active research area for many years with many research groups building on each other's work to advance the state of the art.
Phreezdrydsays...You forgot to mention Rainn Wilson being on stage as some sort of co-presenter.
And a witchcraft tag, really?
vaire2ubesays...Then use this modified to include highspeed cameras and such to eliminate motion blur and rape your eyes:

5/2010
Researchers at the University of Toronto have come up with a new video camera that can achieve infinite depth of field even when objects are immediately in front of the camera. What they did was stuff an array of video cameras into a single camera, with each camera focused at a different distance.
Actually!
bmacs27says...@rychan is correct to distinguish defocus from motion blur here. I had the opportunity to get lunch with this guy who is also working on this topic for adobe when he came down to give a talk about it. It's cool work for sure. The guy quickly talked about how he managed to get nasa to fund taking a picture of Earth from space using all ground based equipment by taking images of the reflection off the moon. He's definitely one of the wildest cats out there.
@vaire2ube Yea, that stuff is cool too. The best is that you can turn the lenses around to make floating holographs like these.
