Abstract:Natural compound eyes (NCEs) are the most abundant and successful eye designs in the animal kingdom. An NCE consists of a number of ommatidia, which are distributed along a curved surface to receive light. This curved feature is critical to the functions of NCE, and it ensures that different ommatidia point to slightly different directions and thus enables panoramic vision, depth perception, and efficient motion tracking while minimizing aberration. Consequently, biomimetic curved artificial compound eyes (BCA… Show more
