Smartphone | having 9 cameras


Now a smartphone with 9 cameras coming soon



Now a smartphone with 9 cameras coming soonAfter smartphones with triple-lens camera like the Huawei P20 pro soon there could be a phone with a 9-lens setup. A startup called Light, which made headlines after showcasing its 16-lens camera system is now working on launching a smartphone with a 9-lens camera setup. The company showcased a prototype of the 9-lens camera smartphone to The Washington Post.


While we have already seen how cameras with two or three lens are put in smartphone, the big question arises as to how does the company plan to accommodate all the 9-lens on the back of a smartphone? The prototype revealed a circular arrangement of the lenses in a solar system kind of arrangement. The sizes of the lens vary giving a haphazard look.

How will the camera work?


All the 9 lenses will be used to capture information regarding the subject related to the lighting, depth, colour, etc. This photographic information will then be processed by an algorithm to stitch a superior photograph. The report claimed that the smartphone will be capable of producing 64 MP images and will offer superior lowlight and depth effects. It can even replace traditional DSLR cameras.


As far as the pricing of the smartphone is concerned, the device will obviously be expensive. “A stand-alone camera from Light with 16 lenses costs $1,950,” said the report. Foxconn is one of the investors of the company. While there is no fixed date as to when the smartphone will be launched, the report claimed that it could be launched later this year.


While smartphone with 9-lens cameras is not far away, companies are also looking at introducing smartphones with foldable displays. In another news, Samsung is set to get into the mass production of the foldable OLED display as per a report from ETNews. As per the report, which cites industry sources, Samsung Display is planning to build a pilot line in Asan, Korea for the production of foldable OLED display panel and will enter into operation soon after that.

Spring Security with JWT for REST API

Spring is considered a trusted framework in the Java ecosystem and is widely used. It’s no longer valid to refer to Spring as a framework, as it’s more of an umbrella term that covers various frameworks. One of these frameworks is Spring Security , which is a powerful and customizable authentication and authorization framework. It is considered the de facto standard for securing Spring-based applications. Despite its popularity, I must admit that when it comes to single-page applications , it’s not simple and straightforward to configure. I suspect the reason is that it started more as an MVC application -oriented framework, where webpage rendering happens on the server-side and communication is session-based. If the back end is based on Java and Spring, it makes sense to use Spring Security for authentication/authorization and configure it for stateless communication. While there are a lot of articles explaining how this is done, for me, it was still frustrating to set it up for the f...

Java Functional Interfaces

  The term   Java functional interface   was introduced in Java 8. A   functional interface   in Java is an interface that contains only a single abstract (unimplemented) method. A functional interface can contain default and static methods which do have an implementation, in addition to the single unimplemented method. Here is a Java functional interface example: public interface MyFunctionalInterface { public void execute(); } The above counts as a functional interface in Java because it only contains a single method, and that method has no implementation. Normally a Java interface does not contain implementations of the methods it declares, but it can contain implementations in default methods, or in static methods. Below is another example of a Java functional interface, with implementations of some of the methods: public interface MyFunctionalInterface2{ public void execute(); public default void print(String text) { System.out.println(t...

In Java, Logging is an API that provides the ability to trace out the errors of the applications. When an application generates the logging call, the Logger records the event in the LogRecord. After that, it sends to the corresponding handlers or appenders. Before sending it to the console or file, the appenders format that log record by using the formatter or layouts. Need for Logging It provides the complete tracing information of the application. It records the critical failure if any occur in ...
