Computer scientists have invented a camera mechanism that improves how robots see and react to the world around them. Inspired by how the human eye works, their innovative camera system mimics the ...

[Michelle Hampson] reports in IEEE Spectrum that Chinese researchers may improve self-driving cars by mimicking how the human eye works. In some autonomous cars, two cameras use polarizing filters to ...

Conventional silicon architecture has taken computer vision a long way, but Purdue University researchers are developing an alternative path — taking a cue from nature — that they say is the ...

Computer scientists at the University of Maryland have unveiled a new camera inspired by the mechanics of the human eye. It is designed to enhance how robots perceive and respond to their surroundings ...

How optical illusions work has been long-debated among scientists and philosophers, who wonder whether these illusions stem from neural processing in the eye or involve higher-level cognitive ...

NEW YORK (AP) — Surgeons have performed the world’s first transplant of an entire human eye, an extraordinary addition to a face transplant — although it’s far too soon to know if the man will ever ...

A diagram of the novel camera system developed by UMD computer scientists Botao He, Yiannis Aloimonos, Cornelia Fermuller, Jinxi Chen and Chahat Deep Singh. A team led by University of Maryland ...
