This reminds me of the scene from the remarkably prescient original Blade Runner (1982) where Deckard is able to look around corners in a photograph -- he tells the computer to "pull out, track right, track 45 right, enhance,..."[1] and finds a woman that wasn't visible at first.

EDIT: Rereading the quotes from the script, it seems like Deckard was using the reflection from a mirror to look into another room. However, in the movie it felt like he was going around a corner to get to the mirror.

There is nothing "prescient" about that scene. It's fiction, and it will never become reality. There's no way to capture an image with that much information in it. Noise will always limit you, especially in dimly lit indoor scenes like that in Blade Runner. If you want to do that kind of trickery, you need a big controlled setup -- nothing you can put in a small box like a camera. And it's not a question of miniaturisation, the problem is that there's a physical limit to the resolution you can capture with a device of a given size.

What if the camera was super high resolution and hyper-spectral?

There's parallax in the photo when he pans, unveiling the woman, if memory serves.

It was definitely sci-fi photograph tech.
