Scientists have created a camera lens that is so small it is around the size of a grain of salt and could take higher-quality images of the insides of our bodies than current technology can.

is the smallest camera ever built -- about the size of a grain of salt. A tiny square substrate with a thin layer of sensors and a lens layered over one side, this camera sends its signal through ...

"At 1x1x1 millimeters, this camera is as small as coarsely ground grain of salt—the smallest camera ... Still, for something so tiny, virtually any picture is impressive, and further development ...

Yet they could take photos comparable to traditional ... of Washington have created ultra-compact cameras as small as a coarse grain of salt. The following image shows the nano camera system ...

The catch here is its size which is comparable to a salt grain. Despite being small, it could capture ultra-high resolution images, which the other previous cameras could not accomplish.
