The year 2012 has been a big one for the tech industry, we have seen a
number of breakthroughs that will change our lives both on short and
long term basis. Just like any other year in the history of mankind,
year 2012 has brought many fruitful innovations and scientific
breakthroughs that will change the course of our lives in coming years.
Here in this post we have listed a few notable inventions of this year
that we think have a huge potential and are on the path of becoming the
next big things. Let’s get started
Lytro Camera
Lytro Camera is the first light field camera that came into existence
after full twenty years of research. The Lytro camera is capable of
taking photos at high resolution and allows users refocus them even
after they have taken the shots. Lytro Camera achieves this task using
its custom software. After taking the photos and ‘refocusing’ you can
share them online and store their digital version in your computer.
Users can not only refocus the photos they took using the Lytro camera
but they can also choose between different perspectives as the camera
takes the photo from a number of angles. Lytro Camera truly reinvents
how we take photos using the digital cameras, and that too at an
affordable price of $399. You can learn more about Lytro camera in the
video below.

Microsoft voice translator
It has been a dream of every human to talk to a person from another
part of the world in his native language and not use English as a common
medium to communicate verbally. While this has been impossible due to
the diverse nature of mankind and due to the presence of thousands of
different languages around the world, Microsoft’s Voice Translator could
change things once and for all. How it works is pretty simple, when a
person speaks in English, it recognizes the words and converts it into
text. It then takes the converted text and intelligently translates it
into the desired language, for example in Chinese. After translating the
text it reads it to the listener who hears Chinese even though the
speaker said those things in the English language. It works in the same
way for the Chinese user and translates his words in English so that the
English speaker could understand.
Currently the Microsoft Translator is in testing stages and supports
English and Chinese. Microsoft plans to add more languages to this
wonderful system and make it more use friendly.
