CES 2010

Don't tell Japanese professor Yojiro Ishino that less is more. On November 24, Ishino and his students at the Nagoya Institute of Technology were rewarded for their excessive creation -- a camera with 158 lenses. According to Crunch Gear, the invention was recently certified by Guinness World Records as having more lenses than any other camera in the world. The lenses are lined up in four rows along the length of the horseshoe-shaped device and each cost about $2.00 -- making the camera quite expensive, too. It took Ishino and his students six months to build the camera, which they used to take pictures of a flickering flame from multiple angles.

Through hard work, these students now have their names forever printed in the record books -- right next to the guy who watched a lot of TV, and the kid who played 'Guitar Hero' until his fingers nearly fell off. At least these students worked in the name of science. [From: Crunch Gear]
