From the article:
A team of researchers from Princeton and the University of Washington created a new camera that captures stunning images and measures in at only a half-millimeter—the size of a coarse grain of salt. 
 
The new study, published in Nature Communications, outlines the use of optical metasurfaces with machine learning to produce high-quality color imagery, with a wide field of view. The device could be used across industries ranging from robotics to most notably the medical field, to help with disease diagnosis.
