Researchers from the University of Konstanz have studied how insect brains take in complex light stimuli and process them in ...

A team of scientists from Stanford University has discovered a method of constructing perovskite solar cells with enhanced durability by taking inspiration from the honeycomb structure of insect eyes.

The next generation of digital cameras could show us how bugs see the world. Researchers have created a digital camera that imitates the bulging eyes of insects, specifically fire ants and bark ...

A smartphone can tell you where to get a cup of coffee, but it can't go get the coffee for you. Engineers would like to build little machines that can do stuff. They would be useful for a lot more ...

Scientists have long thought that insects with compound eye systems couldn’t see the world as clearly as animals sporting eyeballs with singular lenses. But new research indicates that this might not ...

Insects have some pretty amazing eyesight. Unlike humans, where we only have two single-lens eyes, insects have a larger array of eyes that offer a wider field-of-view. Scientists have obviously been ...

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 ...

About five years ago, a bizarre idea occurred to me. At the time, I was designing complex electronic circuits to mimic a small portion of an insect brain. These circuits would be created on a tiny ...

We may all be able to get a bug's-eye view of the world with new camera technology being developed by University of Illinois researchers. Like an insect's compound eye, their device uses many tiny ...

Single lens eyes, like those in humans and many other animals, can create sharp images, but the compound eyes of insects and crustaceans have an edge when it comes to peripheral vision, light ...

Miniature glasses have proved that mantises use 3-D vision, providing a new model to improve visual perception in robots. 3D vision in mantises was originally shown in the 1980s but this work used ...
