Yes, they've worked out how to store a hundred low-res images like that one in a block the size of a hard drive.

there's a way to go yet before you'll need to buy an SATA to optical converter.

this is not storage the MASK 'holds' the info. the single photon part is simply to illustrate that they didn't need high light levels just to get the light to EXIT.

This is very weird - how does a single photon "remember" all that image?
