Figure 1: Schematic illustrations and images of components and integration schemes for a digital camera that takes the form of a hemispherical, apposition compound eye. By analogy to imaging organs in ...

The field of biomimetic imaging systems and artificial compound eyes represents a fusion of biological inspiration and advanced engineering to develop compact, high-performance visual devices. These ...

a. the compound eyes of a dragonfly. b. Microscopic image of the insect compound eye. c. the profile of the dragonfly compound eye. d. Schematic illustration of the fabrication of 3D artificial ...

The eyes of the extinct sea scorpion Jaekelopterus rhenaniae have the same structure as the eyes of modern horseshoe crabs (Limulidae). The compound eyes of the giant predator exhibited lens cylinders ...

Robots are getting down to the size of insects, so it seems only natural that they should be getting insect eyes. A consortium of European researchers has developed the artificial Curved Artificial ...

Researchers have discovered that the compound eyes of today's insects and crustaceans are still constructed in much the same way as they were in their extinct ancestors 500 million years ago. The ...

Almost all of our cameras form images by using a single lens to focus light onto a light-sensitive sheet. That’s how our own eyes actually work, but there are many other ways of seeing the world.

A newly created biologically inspired compound eye is helping scientists understand how insects use their compound eyes to sense an object and its trajectory with such speed. The compound eye could ...

Concept of fast-zoom and high-resolution sparse CEC based on dual-end collaborative optimization. a) Resolution test results in the original imaging state; (b) Resolution test results after dual-end ...
