Ng, who is thirty-two, hurried to Palo Alto, showed Jobs a demo of Lytro?s technology, discussed cameras and product design with him, and, at Jobs?s request, agreed to send him an email outlining three things he?d like Lytro to do with Apple.Lytro received a lot of press last year when the first of its light field cameras went on sale in October.
