Abstract
A plenoptic camera and associated method is provided. The camera has an array of sensors for generating digital images. The images have associated audio signals. The array of sensors are configured to capture digital images associated with a default spatial coordinate and are also configured to receive control input from a processor to change focus from said default spatial coordinate to a new spatial coordinate based on occurrence of an event at said new spatial coordinate.
