Whoa! That's pretty nifty.
How big is a billion-pixel image?
If you are reading this text on a 1280x1024 computer monitor, a one-gigapixel Gigapxl™ image would be 35 of your screens wide and 22 screens tall. A four-gigapixel image is twice as wide and twice as high—that is, 70 screens wide and 44 screens tall. When printed at the highest resolution discernable by the human eye, these images range from 5×10 feet up to 10×20 feet in size. Compared to leading 6-megapixel digital cameras, a Gigapxl™ image has between 160 and 666 times the number of pixels. It also resolves an independent color triplet at each pixel unlike Bayer-pattern digital cameras. These images are big and sharp beyond anything you are likely to have seen in your life.

Hey...I was here first doesn't that count? Eh, you probably claimed royalties before I did  Money has to go somewhere right?
The physical description on how many screens the picture would be at the 1280x1024 resolution is just mad crazy to ponder!

I liked the beach shot... you can barely make out the guys on the cliffs in the fully zoomed out shot, but zoom in and you can see that they've got binoculars... and they're overlooking a nude beach.

There's a splinter in your eye and it reads "react".

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
