Computational photography can capture hand positions and gestures using only an ambient light sensor

Researchers at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have developed a method of capturing images using only the ambient light sensor found on most mobile devices and many laptops. The study "Imaging Privacy Threats From an Ambient Light Sensor" suggests a potential security threat since, unlike the selfie...
