Those lenses are tiny (see here), a few mm across. I suppose they might be mobile phone camera lenses

Marian Drew was born in Australia in 1960. She has had over 20 solo exhibitions in Australia, The United States, France and Germany. In order to create this series, Every Living Thing, Drew photographed local roadkill in a dark studio by torchlight. She exposed the film for 15 minutes against backdrops of previously photographed landscapes printed onto large sheets. After shooting, the animals were given a proper burial in her large backyard. Of this work she says, ‘In 2002, I traveled to Germany, where I studied the still life paintings in museums and in particular an extensive collection at Wilhelmshöhe, in the city of Kassel. On my return home these ideas untied with the imagery of the animals I saw killed on roads in Australia. In the course of daily life these native animals are killed by cars, domestic pets or power lines and are easily found scattered beside the roads throughout our urban environments. This new perspective made me question our existing relationship to wild animals. The wealthy landowners in Renaissance Europe believed that the abundance of nature was there for human consumption. I found correlations to these ideas within the local attitudes to wildlife that are killed in the drive for urban expansion and economic growth. By imitating the historic painted forms of the ‘Still Life’, but replacing paint with photographic verisimilitude, and familiar European animals with Australian native species, a discord is exposed. This work aims to overlay the historical and the present, the European with the antipodean and photography with painting, while exploring contemporary notions of death and a changing relationship to animals’.

Oh your machine looks much more interesting and here I come with a simple SD card thing that has something like a gigapixel for a few bucks

Here you go link
At the moment they use 256 grey scales and when the bucket is charged up they cut it and then you count how many buckets are full.
So you need 256 pixels for one pixel on the screen so it's not so interesting at the moment.
If you read the comments they are already speculating that you could count the number of times the bucket is filled, now if they could do that, that would be highly interesting.

No they make the lenses (elements) link
Just do a patent search and you will see that Hoya has a lot of patents into making lens elements, glass compositions and such.

The new sensors are already on the way, it does not work like a bucket like the CMOS or CCD... well it does but the bucket is very small and it simply counts the number of times a bucket will be filled, you can have huge dynamic range this way.

Easier way to do it is to just save the website, you can even say it should put the images in another folder Am I the only person who didn't know about the Snipping tool in Vista?
