Insects exhibit impressive agility and responsiveness even when faced with low-light conditions. The secret lies in their compound eyes, which are capable of detecting motion with incredible speed and ...
SolidddVision smartglasses, inspired by the eyes of a fly and powered by virtual reality technology, are offering a miraculous chance for people suffering from macular degeneration to regain their ...
Head movements quadruple the range of speeds encoded by the insect motion vision system in hawkmoths
Flying insects use compensatory head movements to stabilize gaze. Like other optokinetic responses, these movements can reduce image displacement, motion and misalignment, and simplify the optic flow ...
