High Speed Video in a single image

A crosspost with Slashdot but in case you missed it this is a pretty interesting new technique.

As I understand it they're using a normal SLR camera to shoot high speed video.

This is done by allowing the camera's pixels to act as if they were part of tens, or even hundreds of individual cameras taking pictures in rapid succession during a single normal exposure. The trick is that the pattern of pixel exposures keeps the high resolution content of the overall image, which can then be used as-is, to form a regular high-res picture, or be decoded into a high-speed movie.

There's an example video here.
