Discover how scientists have taken inspiration from praying mantises to create artificial compound eyes that revolutionize 3D ...

The first complete 3D reconstruction of the compound eye of a minute wasp species sheds light on the nuts and bolts of size reduction.

Domestic researchers developed a camera system that mimics the structure of insect compound eyes. This technology can capture fast-moving objects even in nearly dark environments. It is expected ...

A challenge in building digital cameras with the hemispherical, compound apposition layouts of arthropod eyes is that essential design requirements cannot be met with existing planar sensor ...

The Subaru Telescope in Hawai‘i is adding a new instrument to its arsenal, one that will observe the cosmos through a compound eye. The compound eye will allow Subaru to observe about 2,400 ...

Their enhanced visual field and ability to detect movement help insects avoid predators and catch their prey. These sections come from an area on the top of the dragonfly’s eye called the functional ...

Biomimetic imaging systems, particularly those inspired by the compound eyes of insects, have gained significant attention in recent years. These systems aim to replicate the unique optical ...

The compound eyes of insects can detect fast-moving objects in parallel and, in low-light conditions, enhance sensitivity by integrating signals over time to determine motion. Inspired by these ...

A novel bio-inspired camera capable of ultra-high-speed imaging with high sensitivity was developed by mimicking the visual structure of insect eyes. The compound eyes of insects can detect fast ...
