If you're gonna share clickbait titles, you could at least add a short summary like this:

the Bayer filter—a red, green, and blue layer that sits above the sensor and adds color to your images—absorbs and wastes around 60 percent of that light before it can reach the sensor. To make a red pixel, the filter blocks and throws away blue and green light.

Now, the Boston company Metalenz has acquired an Israeli startup called PxE Holographic Imaging, which has developed a new optical layer called a HoloCoder. This microscopic structure sits directly on top of the image sensor and diffracts light, bending the light waves rather than absorbing them.

Soooooo it sure sounds like my phone's camera isn't going to get an upgrade.

It sure sounds like this is a new technology that might be in future devices.

"This tech", eh? Probably not an automated clickbait filter, then?

Ew, pissraeli startup tech

A big upgrade that no one needs for a higher price? Perfect.

If..and when it becomes saturated enough to be cheap it could be a benefit. I still can't get decent moon pics or constellations .

I was just thinking the same thing, and something like that could really help in low light.

If you have incredibly dark conditions, your eyes can still see some light, but phone cameras can't see shit.
