Certainly an interesting development however important to consider the size of the sensor.

Based on the 7.81mm diagonal value mentioned in the article, it looks like the sensor is less than 1/4″ x 1/4″ hence is significantly smaller than the image circle of many c-mount (let alone DSLR) lenses. Hence the FOV will be correspondingly small.
