Collomosse said until now human intervention was needed to create different styles of images out of photographs, using computer software such as Adobe Photoshop to do so.
Cells are lined up like ants and passed one-by-one through a tiny fluid channel one-fourth the width of a human hair, and a digital camera sensor chip captures images of the cells as they pass over an array of nanoscale holes.

An integration of ICC (Integrated Cognitive Creation) technology, developed by I3 (I-cubed) Research Center, and Sharp large-screen panel technology that gives a resolution four times that of conventional full HD LCD panels, the ICC-LED TV reproduces the cognitive process by which the human brain interprets light stimuli, resulting in on-screen images that approach true-to-life quality.
