This is amazing:

Move around in the picture and focus in on people. You have got to see this.

Now I understand what the Secret Service means when they say "we can observe suspicious expressions on peoples' faces".

This robotic camera can focus on faces in a crowd of one million people.

It is incredible what you can see when you navigate the photo.

It is the 2009 Inauguration Photo in Super Hi-Def. This is absolutely the best in "high definition".

Zoom in by double-clicking an area and watch it focus. Then, double click again to zoom some more, and wait for focus. Move in any direction... it's amazing.

What a surveillance tool...

The robotic camera weighs in at 1,474 mega-pixels or 295 times the standard 5 mega-pixel camera.

It was a Canon that pulled together over 200 individual shots. Each zoom in takes a second to focus ...and then you can see some amazing reactions
