According to Walter Isaacson, the author of the Steve Jobs biography, there were three things that Steve Jobs wanted to reinvent in his lifetime: the television, textbooks, and photography. Well, there have been many rumors that Apple is working on a Siri TV and they just recently announce a plan to bring a new iPad Textbook experience to education, so could the use of the Lytro in Apple products be his final reinvention that was never finalized? If so, this could mean having the most powerful camera in the iPhone, any phone for that matter, with the power to shoot first and focus later. But how exactly could the workings of the Lytro fit into a compact device?

Jobs's Last Photography Wish
Take the iPhone 4s for example. Imagine stuffing an array of lenses inside that small casing, along with a large sensor that has the capability to capture 11 million light rays. Seems like no easy feat when the Lytro sensor looks to be about the size of a phone battery, at least from a virtual perspective. The Lytro is designed in such a way that it seems nearly impossible that it could be squashed down small enough to fit in an iPhone 4s. However, I’m sure Jobs was already working on new designs that would accommodate for the Lytro’s size to fit in the iPhone, even if it meant revolutionizing the design of the iPhone.
