A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

Jokes aside, camera arrays are actually an excellent way to improve image capture while maintaining a small form factor. There's a reason many bugs have many eyes. It's more reliant of software to resolve the image, but it allows more information to come in without increasing the lens size.
Yeah, but you gotta guess which camera your finger is covering..
That's the great part, you actually dont. The image can be resolved with the data available from the others.
My phone has 2 rear cameras, ignoring the selfie camera. I definitely know which camera is which. One is for images, the other is for LIDAR.
I'm talking about camera arrays, like the one in the comic. Do you see the picture above these comments? That's the context. The context of our current conversation.
If you want to have a conversation about your personal phone, maybe take a picture of it and see if anyone wants to talk about it, but honestly I think folks would just think that's strange.
The question is which camera does what?
Am I the only one that bothered researching my own device?
They capture data. All of them.
Except the ones you (or whatever qualified tech) disconnects.
Bugs don't have much "software" going on, and the reason for many lenses is only superficially similar. On phones you want different lenses to do different things, while the bug has different lenses to look into different directions without all the volume "between" eyes also needing to be lens (I think).
Unfortunately brains are computers I’m sorry. It’s not exactly software but it is a computation. Many insects have compound eyes that allow them see in many directions. Compound eyes are collections of eye that form one large eye. This does not indicate directly that they do this to prevent the space between the eye from also being an eye. Having many eyes from different perspectives can be useful for many reasons. A big one being depth perception.
